LOS ANGELES – Ashley Cole walked off the StubHub Center field on Sunday into plenty of uncertainty as the LA Galaxy’s season ended with a 3-2 defeat to the Houston Dynamo.
Cole and the Galaxy were just 45 minutes away from a berth in the 2018 postseason only to see the team concede three unanswered goals to the Dynamo in the second half. The match was a microcosm of the Galaxy’s 2018 campaign as Los Angeles’ offense led the way only for the team to collapse and see their postseason dreams go up in smoke.
For the team captain, it was a disappointing way to end to a two-month run that saw the Galaxy come so close to a postseason berth.
