Events
Match Events

- 10' Adrien Perez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' Julian Araujo is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Los Angeles FC tonight.
- 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Bryce Duke made 285 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 25' Los Angeles FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 26' Ethan Zubak puts Los Angeles Galaxy on the lead.
- 31' The travelling Los Angeles Galaxy supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 36' Dejan Jakovic has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 285 appearances.
- 41' Mark-Anthony Kaye has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 46' Time for substitution for Los Angeles FC. Brian Rodriguez is replaced by Jose Cifuentes.
- 51' Tristan Blackmon catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 51.
- 54' GOAL! Sebastian Lletget fires home to make it 0-2!

- 76' The Los Angeles Galaxy bench stirs into life. Julian Araujo is withdrawn and Efrain Alvarez gets his opportunity.
- 81' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for David Bingham suffering a number of foals already.
- 82' Fresh legs for Los Angeles Galaxy! Sacha Kljestan comes on to replace Sebastian Lletget.
