LA Galaxy 1-3 Real Salt Lake
David Beckham's dazzling pass set up Edson Buddle's headed goal to give Galaxy the lead in the 71st minute, but an own goal by Sean Franklin moments later leveled it for Salt Lake.
Javier Morales and Fabian Espindola scored to give Real Salt Lake a 3-1 win over the defending Major League Soccer champions.
Coach Bruce Arena blamed himself for fielding a lineup of tired players after Los Angeles' difficult CONCACAF Champions League match in Toronto on Wednesday.
"I think we all felt good going into the game, but the fatigue of playing a hard game on turf and then traveling back took its toll," Beckham said. "I thought we had quite a few chances to win it, but there were a few mistakes. We'll be OK."
