Two Ola Kamara goals in three minutes should have been enough for the LA Galaxy to outlast the Houston Dynamo Sunday afternoon and advance to the MLS Cup 2018 playoffs. Instead three unanswered strikes from a lethal Dynamo attack relegated LA to watching the postseason on TV in stunning fashion.
Dom Kinnear’s squad started off strong if a bit too eager, but after several close chances including a point-blank range effort from Ibrahimovic, LA went ahead off a glancing header from Ola Kamara. The Norwergian international doubled the Galaxy’s lead moments later off a pinpoint cross from Ashley Cole.
