Carson, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Robbie Keane scored the winner late in the second period of extra time on Sunday, lifting the Los Angeles Galaxy to a 2-1 victory over the New England Revolution at the StubHub Center, handing the club its fifth MLS Cup title. All the storylines entering the title tilt centered on Landon Donovan, who played in his final professional match, but it was the newly crowned league MVP who proved his worth when it mattered most as his excellently-taken goal in the 111th minute gave the Galaxy the title. It was a tense affair over the opening 45 minutes as the Galaxy came out with more energy and created a couple chances within the opening moments. But New England slowly settled into the game and got the intermission scoreless. The match really opened up in the second half and the hosts grabbed the lead in the 52nd minute as Gyasi Zardes got on the end of diagonal cross from Stefan Ishizaki on the left side of the penalty area. He settled the ball and ripped it past Revolution goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth with a left-footed strike. The Revolution answered with an equalizer in the 79th minute as rookie substitute Patrick Mullins got free down the left flank and cut it back to Chris Tierney, who took one touch past his defender and slid it past Galaxy goalkeeper Jaime Penedo for the tying goal. New England had the better of the play in the first period of extra time and had a golden opportunity to go ahead in the 104th minute as Mullins got in behind the defense and smashed a low strike on target, forcing Penedo into an impressive diving stop. But Keane put the hosts in front for good with nine minutes to go when he slipped in behind thanks to an excellent ball from Marcelo Sarvas before sliding into the bottom right corner. The fourth officials board showed an additional four minutes of time, but New England could not fashion another equalizer as the Revs suffered their fifth defeat in an MLS Cup final.
