Donovan Brace Gives Him Golden Boot Lead, Galaxy Shutover Over Whitecaps

Landon Donovan took the lead in Major League Soccer's Golden Boot competition with 12 goals after scoring two in the Los Angeles Galaxy's 4-0 rout of MLS' worst team, the Vancouver Whitecaps, at Empire Field in Vancouver, British Columbia Saturday.

Sean Franklin and Adam Cristman added goals as the Galaxy, best in the league at 12-2-9 with 45 points and the defending Western Conference regular season champion, extended their unbeaten streak to 14 games, while Vancouver, at 2-11-9 with 15 points, has earned one point in the Western standings over their last six games.

The Galaxy travel to JELD-WEN Field Wednesday to meet the Portland Timbers, while the Whitecaps host the Chicago Fire next Sunday.
