LA Galaxy 2020 player postmortem: Joe Corona

Joe Corona returned in 2020 for his second year with the LA Galaxy. After a debut campaign in MLS where he played nearly every game, Corona looked set to be a key player once more, and he was under Guillermo Barros Schelotto.

When Corona first emerged as a professional, helping Club Tijuana rise to Liga MX and win the league title, the San Diego native was a midfielder who played a two-way game but had a knack for making an attacking foray to considerable success.

He made his way to the U.S. Men’s National Team, but over time, Corona fell out of order with Xolos and bounced around Mexico a bit, before coming to the Galaxy and making a fresh start of sorts.
