For weeks LA Galaxy fans have been clamoring for a 3-5-2 formation. This would protect the flanks better, and give the team more balance. To be fair, usually this line up also meant a request of the insertion of Dejan Joveljiu0107 from the start, which is why fans wanted it so bad. But two glorious through balls through the center of the field on some lovely technical play gave Los Angeles the lead and Jonathan Bond and the post gave them the win.
The five-man backfield gave the midfield some reassurance, along with Gasper’s more conservative play than Raheem Edwards.
