Sounder at Heart: The Galaxy managed to get their first win of the season against cross-town rivals LAFC this weekend. What was the secret to LAG’s win?
LAG Confidential: I don’t think there was one factor that went into the win. The Galaxy looked prepared, and several players said in the aftermath they took their time preparing for the game, and it showed. Is that replicable? We’ll see!
Beyond that, LA’s energy was fantastic, they out-hustled LAFC, their defense stayed compact throughout and they stopped sending in a thousand looping crosses to no one in the box.
