The LA Galaxy Academy Under-16 team played their third and final Group B game of the Generation adidas Finals' Championship Division today.
While a win would have solidified the Galaxy's semifinal spot in the tournament, the U-16s ended regulation in a scoreless draw with River Plate, before falling to the defending champions in penalty kicks.
