LA Galaxy Seeks First Win Against San Diego FC on Saturday

San Diego, California – The winless LA Galaxy hopes to change its fortunes on Saturday afternoon when it faces San Diego FC in Major League Soccer action. The Galaxy, which celebrated an MLS Cup victory only six months ago, is now struggling at the bottom of the standings.

With no wins in their first 14 matches of the season, the Galaxy holds the record for the worst start in MLS history. The team has not tasted victory for weeks, and the future looks bleak as they prepare for their upcoming match.

San Diego FC, on the other hand, has thrived in its inaugural season. Although they drew with Sporting Kansas City last weekend, the team has remained unbeaten in their last four matches, including impressive wins over FC Dallas and the Colorado Rapids. San Diego sits third in the Western Conference, just four points behind the first-place Vancouver Whitecaps.

The match is set for Saturday, May 24, at 4:45 p.m. ET at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego. It will be broadcast on FOX and FOX Deportes.

Head coach Greg Vanney of the Galaxy received a multi-year contract extension despite the team’s disappointing season. General manager Will Kuntz expressed confidence in Vanney’s leadership, noting his successful history in the league.

The Galaxy’s performance has deteriorated, particularly following the injury of star midfielder Riqui Puig, who was a key player last season. The team has struggled without him and has earned only three points from their 13 games.

LA Galaxy’s last match ended in a 2-2 draw against LAFC, but they are still desperate for a win. This weekend’s fixture against San Diego FC represents a critical opportunity for the struggling team to break their losing streak.

San Diego FC will be without players Hamady Diop, Marcus Ingvartsen, and Andres Reyes due to injuries. Meanwhile, the Galaxy looks to boost its squad as they prepare for a challenging but potentially rewarding encounter.
