Crew forges tie with L.A.

Mercury News Wire Services

Second-half substitute Stephen Lenhart scored the tying goal in the 88th minute for the Columbus Crew, which scored three times in the final 23 minutes to earn a 3-3 draw with the Los Angeles Galaxy on Saturday. Landon Donovan converted a penalty kick in the 83rd minute, but Lenhart erased the second one-goal deficit of the half for the Crew.

The match marked the first time since May 24 that Donovan and David Beckham played together for the Galaxy, and the pairing quickly paid off. Beckham crossed a ball into the front of the net, but Columbus goalkeeper William Hesmer couldn't control it. Donovan got the ball and scored into an empty net in the fourth minute.
