Not much to say from the Galaxy side and that’s a bad thing. With Landon Donovan on Gold Cup duties, the offense really seemed to lack bite all night. With 1 shot on goal and 8 attempts on goal for the entire 90 minutes, the Galaxy never really looked as if they were going to pull 3 points out of this game.
DC looked the more threatening side. Josh Wolff probably had the best chance on goal in the 25th on a well-played cross from Andy Najar. The defense was serviceable as usual and continues their clean sheet streak at 4 games. Not the result that was wanted or needed with RSL and Dallas winning their games this week, but a point is a point and now LA will look forward to playing TFC next Saturday.
