LA Galaxy II (5-10-4, 19 points) fell 4-3 to Portland Timbers 2 (10-9-2, 32 points) in a thriller on Saturday afternoon at StubHub Center Track & Field Stadium.
The Galaxy started the best way they could, with Miguel Aguilar megging a defender before making his way into the penalty area and sliding a pass to Ethan Zubak for the backheel goal. But the tone for the rest of the match was set just two minutes later, when Jeremy Ebobisse finished a diving header on a corner from Portland Timbers 2.
Seven minutes later, John Requejo earned a penalty for Los Dos.
