LOS ANGELES -- Ante Razov scored in second-half injury time as Chivas USA beat Kansas City 2-1 on Saturday.

Chivas USA (14-6-5) had clinched a playoff spot for the second consecutive season before the game was over when Real Salt Lake beat Colorado 1-0.

A year ago, Chivas reached the playoffs for the first time in team history but was eliminated in the first round.

Razov opened the scoring in the 69th minute but Kansas City's Eloy Colombano tied it just three minutes later. In the extra time, Razov curled a 22-yarder past Kansas City's Kevin Hartman to give Chivas the victory.

Kansas City (10-10-6) stayed one point behind third-place New York in the Eastern Conference standings.

Razov took a pass from Francisco Mendoza in the 69th minute and buried the ball into the roof of the net. It was Razov's 108th career MLS goal.

The Wizards responded just three minutes later. Eddie Johnson ran into the penalty area, shook off Chivas' Claudio Suarez and hit the crossbar from 12 yards out. The ball fell to Colombano who had no problem tapping the loose ball across the goal line.

 

The goal was just the fourth Chivas has allowed at home this season.

Razov won the game with his 109th career goal. Razov ripped a shot from outside the penalty area to secure three points and the club's spot atop the Western Conference standings.
