Match report

Los Angeles Galaxy took three points from Dignity Health Sports Park on Sunday, beating Colorado Rapids 3-2 in MLS Regular Season 27. The result keeps both sides level on 36 points, though Galaxy sit eighth while Rapids occupy seventh.

Donavan Phillip gave the hosts an early lead in the fourth minute, and Paxten Aaronson levelled before half-time. A Reggie Cannon own goal in the 53rd minute shifted the balance, then Klauss and Justin Haak added two more to secure the win.

Rapids dominated possession at 60 per cent and registered 84 attacks, but Galaxy's 55 attacks produced more clinical finishes. The visitors created four big chances to Galaxy's three, yet only managed four shots on target compared to seven for the hosts.

Both teams picked up bookings in quick succession around the hour mark, and Galaxy made five changes while Rapids made two. The substitutions included Lucas Felipe·Calegari and Klauss going off for the hosts, with Joshua Atencio and Keegan Rosenberry coming on for the visitors.

The scoreline reflects a match where chances went begging for one side and were punished for the other. Galaxy needed the points badly after their heavy defeat to Vancouver, and they ground out the win despite Rapids controlling more of the ball.
