How does it feel to watch an LA Galaxy game where it’s Los Angeles on the winning side of the 3-0 scoreline early?
Great.
After a series of beatdowns, this lopsided game, a 5-2 rout over the Vancouver Whitecaps, was sorely needed to deliver a confidence charge to a team that was looking downtrodden and lost. Now the Galaxy have a win to build on with Riqui Puig’s addition around the corner.
Greg Vanney got the tactics right with speedy flanks that overwhelmed Vancouver’s narrow defense. And Samuel Grandsir finally decided to find his finishing boots.
