The Galaxy looked sharper than they had in weeks last Saturday against the Revolution, which
bodes well for the run they will have to make in order to get into the playoffs. However, this
Saturday MLS has, in its infinite wisdom, decided to schedule league matches concurrently with a
FIFA World Cup qualifier date.
The Galaxy enter today's home game (8:00 pm PDT - FSC) in the grip of a club-record 12 game
winless streak, taking just six points from the 36 on offer. They sit at the bottom of the Western
Conference on 26 points, four points out of the last Western playoff spot. It's been over 100 days
since the team's last win and it is the first time since mid-July that both Landon
Donovan and David Beckham will be playing together in front of the Home
Depot Center crowd.
Today the Galaxy takes on Real Salt Lake at the Home Depot Center at 7:30 PDT. You can follow
the action via the Direct Kick package or on MLSLive.tv.
After last week's much improved performance I should be looking forward to this game. It's at
home, it's again a team that can't buy a point on the road, and they happen to be conference
rivals.
