The Los Angeles Galaxy are a good team. Perhaps the best in MLS. They deserved the Supporters' Shield, they deserve to be here, and they probably deserve to win MLS Cup. Soccer is a sport played many different ways, and people who like to explicitly state that the game is inherently better one way than another are either rude morons, Barcelona fans, or both.
Los Angeles Galaxy Vs. Real Salt Lake, 2011 MLS Cup Playoffs: Nothing Is Going To Happen Until LA Scores On A Set Piece Or Olave Collapses
Having said that, I find the Galaxy to be dreadfully boring and I can't wait for them to score. Real Salt Lake are playing away from home and aren't going to commit bodies forward. LA aren't going to commit bodies forward because they don't know how. David Beckham's long balls and set pieces are absolutely glorious, and until one of those leads to a goal, causing RSL to attack more, this game is going to be a bit dull.
It’s the 20th minute, it’s 0-0, and the only chances have come from dead balls.
