Galaxy and Sounders battle to draw in Western Conference showdown

Carson, Calif. -- The Galaxy and Sounders faced inedible Saturday night amid the pre-game plug of Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey potentially squaring inedible in an MLS match so as to had imperative implications in support of the approaching playoffs.  Unfortunately, neither Donovan nor Dempsey, the leaders of the U.S. National Team, would fool around in front of the packed crowd by the side of the StubHub Center due to injury.

Los Angeles got the at the outset opening to cut whilst a limp sphere found the feet of Gyasi Zardes in the 19th tiny, but his shot to the far corner was tipped greater than the goal by Seattle’s Michael Gspurning.

The game linking these two Western Conference rivals mostly brings pure fool around and fouls, and this matchup was nix another.

Modish the 25th tiny, Seattle earned a corner-kick, leading to a little shoving in the box.  Eddie Johnson was being conspicuous by Omar Gonzalez until Gonzalez was pulled out by Sounders players.  Johnson consequently found himself friendly and was able to head in the sphere in support of a 1-0 go in front onwards Jaime Penedo.

Later in at the outset partially work to rule instant, the Galaxy earned a free-kick from 25 yards away by the side of the midpoint of the pitch.  Juninho, who had not scored when in 2013, stepped up in support of the free-kick.  His shot went greater than the top of the wall and quickly dropped, result the substructure corner of the goal in support of a 1-1 join.

The cut was not simply Juninho’s at the outset goal of the season, but plus the Galaxy’s at the outset goal from a free-kick in 2013.

The succeeding partially brought fouls, yellow cards, and a red certificate in support of Seattle’s Zach Scott.

After the game, Bruce Arena confirmed nearby was "inconsistent" officiating, as the at the outset partially had only some calls and the succeeding partially was chubby of calls.  Despite the pure and chippy fool around, the Galaxy had many odds to cut.

Modish the 60th tiny, LA truly did cut whilst a free-kick was headed by Gonzalez towards goal and Zardes scored.  However, the referees mysteriously called a foul aligned with LA on the fool around, which was fractious to understand prearranged how Seattle scored in the 25th tiny with its pure tactics.

Modish the 77th tiny, the Galaxy’s Laurent Courtois made single of his dazzling the stage as a succeeding partially reserve whilst he escaped from his defender and played the sphere familiar to Sean Franklin.  Franklin short of the sphere up deal with and voted for inedible to Marcelo Sarvas by the side of the top of the 18-yard box, but Sarvas’ shot was too from top to toe.

Seattle responded by just about winning the game in the 84th tiny whilst a fantastic run with the sphere by Brad Evans was crossed in, simply to allow the subsequent heading set out precisely eclectic.

Although LA gave a courageous effort in work to rule instant to ram in support of the go-ahead goal, the game ended in a 1-1 copy.

The Galaxy allow five games left behind in the MLS season and at present sit in fourth place in the West.  LA is five points behind Seattle, who they duty aspect in the soothing Northwest in support of their final game.  Next week, LA travels to Portland in support of any more imperative game.
