For the members of the Los Angeles Galaxy in the Home Depot Center today, it was all smiles.

A Landon Donovan penalty eased LA's way to a 1-0 win over derby rivals Chivas USA in the Major League Soccer playoffs. That win gave the Galaxy a 3-2 aggregate win over two legs.

The Houston Dynamo awaits in the Western Conference final on Friday.

One player crucial to the win was Mike Magee. The attacker won the penalty in the second half when Chivas USA defender Yamith Cuesta swung a careless leg and caught him in the groin.

Watch video of Magee's thoughts below, as well as the reactions of head coach Bruce Arena, Sean Franklin, Omar Gonzalez, and Alan Gordon.
