Cunningham scored his MLS-best 11th goal in the seventh minute, moving into space at the top of the Galaxy box when rookie defender Ugo Ihemelu stepped up as Terry Cooke delivered a pass. Left alone, Cunningham raced toward the goal, cut inside Peter Vagenas and beat goalkeeper Kevin Hartman to the far post.

Peguero scored his third of the year - and second against the Galaxy - in the third minute, racing past rookie Troy Roberts on a run from the left flank. Ihemelu and veteran Chris Albright were out of position, and Peguero honed in on Hartman, firing to his right.

The Galaxy tested Colorado goalkeeper Joe Cannon with crosses from the right early in the second half but managed nothing dangerous. L.A. took only six shots, just one of them on frame.

The Galaxy's only ``road'' victory this season was against Chivas USA at Home Depot Center, and it takes on its cross-stadium rival again Wednesday - an ``away'' game at the Coliseum.

After that are three more road games - at Eastern Conference leader Chicago, defending champion D.C. United and San Jose, the hottest team in the league, which routed the Galaxy 3-0 in the previous Spartan Stadium meeting.
