Emmanuel Boateng scored his first goal of the season to help LA Galaxy record a 2-0 win over FC Cincinnati in the MLS on Saturday.

It was a clinical finish into the bottom corner from just inside the 18-yard box in the 12th minute.

Three minutes later, Favio Alvarez reacted quickest to a poor clearance and fired into the bottom corner to double the Galaxy's lead.

The match was played in front of a sold-out crowd at Nippert Stadium.
