No team in Major League Soccer has been better than the Galaxy over the last month, which led captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic to an interesting conclusion: Perhaps the only team that can beat the Galaxy right now is the Galaxy.
“I think our only threat is ourselves,” he said. “If we relax, if we start to underestimate the team we play against, we will get punished.”
That theory will be put to the test Wednesday at Allianz Field when the Galaxy, riding a league-best five-game winning streak, face Minnesota United, which is 1-3-1 in its last five games.
