CARSON, Calif.— Giovani and Jonathan dos Santos excelled in their return to the LA Galaxy starting lineup for the team’s 4-0 win over Columbus Crew SC after being away for a month on World Cup duty with Mexico.
Just 20 minutes into the first half, Jonathan helped create the team’s first goal as his combination play with Ashley Cole helped the left back find Kamara for the opening goal.
“I thought they did well. Jonathan in midfield helps us because we bring the ball out a little bit,” Galaxy coach Sigi Schmid said.
The stat sheet showcased Jona’s midfield influence as he finished the game completing 81 percent of his passes and creating three scoring chances.
