CARSON — The old version of the Galaxy made an appearance at the wrong time Wednesday night.
After finding some success throughout the Leagues Cup tournament, avoiding all the pitfalls and mistakes that have hurt them in the regular season, the Galaxy victimized themselves at two key moments in a 2-0 semifinal loss to the Seattle Sounders in front of 16,255 at Dignity Health Sports Park.
The Galaxy made it to the semifinals by going 3-0-1 against four Liga MX teams, beating Tijuana, Santos Laguna and Pachuca and earning a draw against Cruz Azul.
Despite the loss, the Galaxy still have a chance at some consolation in the third-place game. The Galaxy, who will face Orlando City SC on Sunday, must win that game to secure a spot in next year’s CONCACAF Champions Cup tournament.
