The two Southern California sides played an up-and-down, high-scoring match that ended in a 3-3 draw at Banc of California Stadium. Rivalry games are key to the popularity of Major League Soccer, and Saturday’s “El Trafico” between the LA Galaxy and host Los Angeles FC didn’t disappoint in the slightest. Jonathan Bond tipped an LAFC shot over the net for a save in the 46th minute, but that was a precursor of things to come. On the other end, LAFC goalie Tomas Romero came up with a save of a Cabral header in the 52nd minute. Rodriguez put LAFC in front again, putting in the rebound of a saved shot in the 66th minute, two minutes after the Galaxy had drawn even.
