After days full of excitement, uncertainty, and a turmoil of emotions, the San Jose Earthquakes are set to close the week with the 71st Cali Clasico as they battle the LA Galaxy in the first true road match of the season.
The Earthquakes were hours away from playing against the Portland Timbers at Earthquakes Stadium on Wednesday evening, but the game was called off in an act of solidarity in response to the recent shooting of Jacob Blake and events in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
Players from the first team, led by forward Chris Wondolowski, took the decision to stand with other players from various sports to fight for equality and social injustice in this country.
