SEATTLE — Landon Donovan looked ready for the World Cup with a goal and three assists, and the Los Angeles Galaxy remained unbeaten with a 4-0 win over the Seattle Sounders FC on Saturday.
In what could be his last Major League Soccer tuneup before heading off to U.S. national team camp, Donovan set up the first three goals for Los Angeles (7-0-1) before netting his first of the season in the 67th minute off a feed from Edson Buddle.
Jovan Kirovski gave L.A. a 1-0 lead midway through the first half from 25 yards. Omar Gonzalez and Todd Dunivant added second-half headers as the Galaxy ran their regular season unbeaten streak to 11.
TORONTO FC 4, FIRE 1: At Toronto, Chad Barrett scored twice over a three-minute span of the second half to lead Toronto FC past Chicago.
Barrett, acquired in a trade with Chicago two years ago, scored in the 66th minute and again in the 69th for Toronto (3-4-0), which is unbeaten at home and winless on the road.
Nick LaBrocca and O'Brian White also had goals for Toronto.
CREW 3, REVOLUTION 2: At Columbus, Ohio, Robbie Rogers scored in the first minute of second-half stoppage to lift Columbus past New England.
Rogers scored after New England goalkeeper Darrius Barnes had cleared a shot by Jason Garey off the goal line.
Rookie Zak Boggs scored his first two career goals for the Revolution (2-5-1). Eddie Gaven scored for Columbus (3-0-2), which also benefited from an own goal from New England defender Cory Gibbs.
FC DALLAS 1, D.C. UNITED 0: At Frisco, Texas, Jeff Cunningham scored in the 68th minute to lift FC Dallas to its second straight victory.
Cunningham, who missed FC Dallas' 1-0 win over Houston on Wednesday due to a sore left knee, scored on a right-footed shot from 10 yards out.
Heath Pearce started the scoring sequence with a pass to David Ferreira, who redirected the ball to a streaking Cunningham. Cunningham then scored his fourth goal of the season for FC Dallas (2-1-4), which was winless in its first five games.
United midfielder Kurt Morsink nearly tied it the 79th minute with a shot from outside the penalty circle that hit the crossbar.
EARTHQUAKES 4, RED BULLS 0: At Santa Clara, Calif., Ryan Johnson scored his first goal of the season and added two assists to lead the San Jose Earthquakes to a 4-0 victory over the New York Red Bulls on Saturday night.
