Landon Donovan made his return as Giovani dos Santos led the LA Galaxy to a 4-2 win over Orlando City in MLS.
Donovan, 34, came out of retirement and made his return on Sunday – 643 days after his previous MLS match.
He came off the bench with the Galaxy cruising at the StubHub Center thanks largely to Dos Santos.
Kevin Molino had put the visitors ahead, but the Galaxy equalised as Dos Santos tapped in a cross from Emmanuel Boateng.
Another cross from the left, this time from Jelle Van Damme, saw Alan Gordon put the hosts in front.
A Dos Santos penalty on the stroke of half-time had his team in control and the Mexican set up Robbie Keane for an easy fourth.
