The San Jose Earthquakes’ winless run has extended to seven games, after they lost the Cali Clasico against the LA Galaxy 3-1 on Saturday at PayPal Park.
While the margin of defeat was smaller than the Quakes’ last match, that comes as scant consolation for a team that did score late, but after the game was already decided.
Matias Almeyda opted for a three-man midfield in this game, with Eric Remedi returning to the XI alongside both Judson and Jackson Yueill. Shea Salinas also got the start, at left back.
The game didn’t start well for the Earthquakes, with Chicharito opening the scoring for LA just 11 minutes in, the tricky forward beating the defender to tip in a cross.
