On an emotional day for the club, the LA Galaxy lost Romain Alessandrini to a hamstring pull early before pulling off a come from behind 2-1 victory Saturday night at the newly renamed Dignity Health Sports Park.
It was a shame to see a player in Romain Alessandrini who clearly cares deeply about the club and the city of LA dejectedly limp off the field, but the Designated Player was forced to exit just 20 minutes in.
After Alessandrini came off LA struggled to recover and were surprisingly flat the rest of the half, unable to muster anything in attack.
