Robbie Keane was unusually rusty Friday night, but the LA Galaxy still managed to outlast the Houston Dynamo 1-0 at the StubHub Center.

For the first time in 2016, the Galaxy fielded the same starting lineup in consecutive games. And yet, LA struggled to get on the board against a organized and determined Houston side.
Robbie Keane appeared to get the Galaxy off to another early lead when his chip attempt inside the box hit the arm of David Horst, but his approach on the penalty kick wasn't convincing, and with Willis guessing correctly, Keane slotted his shot wide of the right goalpost.
