CARSON, Calif. -- When David Beckham put a dazzling pass off Edson Buddles forehead and into the net, the Los Angeles Galaxy appeared to be picking up right where they left off last season in their dominant run to the MLS title. About 20 disastrous minutes later, Beckham and his Galaxy realized nothing will be easy about repeating their championship run. Javier Morales scored Real Salt Lakes go-ahead goal in the 80th minute after a tying own-goal by Los Angeles Sean Franklin, and Fabian Espindola added another late score in a 3-1 victory that spoiled the Galaxys celebratory season opener Saturday night. Before the game, fans from the Galaxys top supporters groups pulled down two black curtains in the rafters above the south end of the pitch, unveiling Los Angeles banners honouring the clubs second straight Supporters Shield and its third MLS Cup championship. But the celebration was over after Salt Lake handed the Galaxy their first home loss in 26 matches since Nov. 14, 2010. Beckhams service on Buddles 71st-minute goal was the most impressive moment of the start of the English superstars sixth season with the Galaxy, who re-signed him to a two-year contract. He was greeted with a pregame standing ovation at Home Depot Center from a crowd holding signs reading "Welcome back Beckham!" and "L.A. Loves You, David!" "I saw a few welcome-back signs out there, but I didnt know Id gone," said Beckham, who lives in Los Angeles mostly year-round now. Buddles goal put the Galaxy ahead, but they fell apart moments later, with Franklins accidental deflection of Sebastian Velasquezs pass leading to two more Real goals, all in a 12-minute span. Coach Bruce Arena blamed himself for fielding a lineup of tired players after Los Angeles difficult CONCACAF Champions League match in Toronto on Wednesday. "I think we all felt good going into the game, but the fatigue of playing a hard game on turf and then travelling back took its toll," Beckham said. "I thought we had quite a few chances to win it, but there were a few mistakes. Well be OK." Indeed, the Galaxy must take a long-term view to survive a tough early schedule. They drew with Toronto FC 2-2 three days ago on the unforgiving artificial turf of Rogers Centre, but only after overcoming an early 2-0 deficit by playing several key players all 90 minutes. Arena said the Galaxys busy first week amounted to a "very poor job on behalf of the league in terms of scheduling." "I should have used fresher bodies," Arena said. "We hit the wall and just made mistakes attributable to fatigue. At this time of year, players arent fit to play that much." Salt Lake, which lost to Los Angeles last season in the Western Conference final, took charge after Franklins own-goal. Morales capitalized on a miscommunication in Los Angeles defence to score the winner, banging a short shot past Josh Saunders in the box. Espindola got another in the 85th minute on the run, celebrating in front of Reals small band of travelling supporters. Real Salt Lake also begins the season with high expectations after falling one game short of the MLS Cup last season, but they opened without elite defender Nat Borchers, whos still recovering from off-season surgery. Top goal-scorer Alvaro Saborio and Morales, who also had surgery, came on as substitutes. Buddle immediately scored in his return after a year away in Germanys second division, while Landon Donovan and Robbie Keane also played aggressive games for Los Angeles. But the Galaxys stars quickly learned that even Home Depot Center isnt sacrosanct after they didnt lose here all season long in 2011, capped by their ostensibly neutral-site victory in the MLS Cup. "To go on a run like that when youre unbeaten at home for that long, you have to have some things go your way," Donovan said. "Tonight, some things just went against us. These first few games are about recovery and getting ready to go. We have to get whatever rest we can and get ready." Los Angeles was MLS best defensive team last year, but has already yielded five goals in two matches this week. Tommy Meyer, the Galaxys rookie first-round pick, took Omar Gonzalezs spot in the middle of the defence. Gonzalez, the reigning MLS Defender of the Year, is out indefinitely after surgery on his left knee. nfl jerseys china . -- John Farrell has plenty of reasons to be bummed that the Toronto Blue Jays wont be back in Kansas City this season. cheap jerseys from china .
