Kljestan scores in 2nd straight game, LA Galaxy beat Dynamo

HOUSTON (AP) — Sacha Kljestan and Kevin Cabral scored in the LA Galaxy’s 3-0 win over the Houston Dynamo on Wednesday night.

Los Angeles (13-11-6) has won two straight after getting a stoppage-time winner from Kljestan on Saturday. Houston (6-13-12) was eliminated from playoff contention Saturday.

Greg Vanney earned his 100th regular-season victory as an MLS coach.
