COG STUDIOS, Calif. — The LA Galaxy started the 2026 season with back-to-back draws. And neither of the games is anything approaching great soccer! But are there trends that we can identify early on?
On today’s show, hosts Josh Guesman and Damian Calhoun (Southern California News Group) discuss the 1-1 draws to both Sporting San Miguelito and New York City FC. They are two different games with two different versions of the Galaxy. But the results were the same.
So is this version of the Galaxy a defensive team? Is this version of the Galaxy working on offense? Is this version of the Galaxy missing pieces in the midfield?
Let’s talk about what actual competitive soccer means and what to expect on the return leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup.
