Joseph Paintsil and Diego Fagúndez scored back-to-back goals in the second half to lift the Galaxy to a 3-1 victory over Vancouver.
Joseph Paintsil and Diego Fagúndez scored two minutes apart late in the second half to spark the Galaxy to a 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Whitecaps on Saturday night in a match that featured three Japanese-born starters for the first time in league history. Vancouver goalkeeper Yohei Takaoka as well as Galaxy defenders Miki Yamane and Maya Yoshida all started and accomplished a feat not seen in the league's 31 years.
Gauld became the first Whitecaps player to total 25 goals and 25 assists in a career last week. Paintsil took a through ball from Riqui Puig in the 80th minute and scored the go-ahead goal for the Galaxy and then notched an assist in the 82nd on a fast-break insurance goal by Fagúndez, also set up by a Puig through ball. Paintsil, a 26-year-old rookie forward has three goals and three assists in his first eight matches, all starts.
