And it’s over: LAFC 3, LA Galaxy 2
It was yet another El Trafico that was great for the neutrals, less so for the partisans, but after trading blows with LAFC for 90-plus minutes, the LA Galaxy lost 3-2 on Thursday in the Western Conference semifinals at Banc of California Stadium.
The Galaxy came back twice, and certainly played better than their crosstown rivals for large stretches of the match, but a late winner was not enough to overcome a third time, and LA’s season has ended in dramatic fashion.
Greg Vanney used the same XI to start as in the last game, with Douglas Costa and Samuel Grandsir flanking Chicharito up top.
