Morelia 2-1 LA Galaxy: MLS side gives up lead in CONCACAF Champions League loss
Robbie Keane had a goal disallowed at the death as the Mexican host surged to score an injury-time winner.

Joao Rojas, Morelia
Morelia rebounded from going a goal down to win 2-1 over the Los Angeles Galaxy in CONCACAF Champions League play Tuesday night.
Early in the second half Robbie Keane gave the MLS side the lead in Mexico with a tidy finish.
With the vast majority of possession, Morelia peppered Josh Saunders' goal with chances. In the 83rd minute, a long-distance blast by Adrian Aldrete squirmed under Saunders and in for the equalizer.
Keane thought he'd scored the winner at the death but his goal was cruelly disallowed for offside. Instead, Miguel Sabah powered home a header from a corner in injury time to bring Morelia level with the Galaxy on six points in Group A.
