Without Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romain Alessandrini you would have expected the LA Galaxy to struggle offensively, but Guillermo Barros Schelotto’s squad possessed the ball with purpose and attacked intelligently as LA overwhelmed Minnesota United FC Saturday night at Dignity Health Sports Park.
Uriel Antuna was placed up top in place of Zlatan, but it mattered little. From the get go, LA were the sharper side, first to every ball and unbalancing the Loons with a combination of smooth possession and incisive attacking play.
