Chucky Lozano scored on a header in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time to give San Diego FC a dramatic 2-1 victory over the Los Angeles Galaxy on Saturday afternoon.

The Galaxy misplayed a ball in the midfield to set up the decisive tally. San Diego capitalized as Anders Dreyer sent a cross into the box and Lozano headed it into the right corner of the net.

The late breakdown saw Los Angeles (0-11-4, 4 points) continue its dubious record for the longest winless start in MLS history, now at 15 games. Diego Fagundez scored the Galaxy goal.

Luca de la Torre also scored a goal for San Diego FC (8-4-3, 27 points), who have a five-match unbeaten streak (4-0-1). The expansion team has beaten the Galaxy twice this season.

In their MLS debut on Feb. 22, San Diego FC notched a 2-0 road victory over the defending MLS champion Galaxy.

San Diego FC had a 14-9 edge in shots on Saturday and a 3-1 advantage in shots on target.

San Diego’s Anibal Godoy put a left-footed half-volley attempt over the net in the 81st minute.

Los Angeles had a big opportunity to take the lead in the 89th minute, but Marco Reus sent a left-footer over the net.

The Galaxy struck in the 40th minute when Reus sent a pass across the field to Fagundez, who sent a right-footed blast into the net.

It took San Diego FC just one minute to knot the score. Jeppe Tverskov slid a pass ahead to de la Torre, who booted a right-footed shot into the net.

Los Angeles had two solid chances in the first 10 minutes.

With San Diego goalkeeper CJ dos Santos creeping out of his box, Maya Yoshida fired from the midfield line and the ball was just wide of the net in the third minute. Seven minutes later, Joseph Paintsil’s right-footed shot went over the net.

San Diego missed three solid chances in the first half. Lozano’s header went over the net in the 19th minute, Godoy’s left-footer was wide in the 33rd minute and de la Torre missed with a right-footed shot in the 34th minute.
