We take a look at how the Galaxy can replicate that great start, how it all went wrong in the second half, and what the Galaxy can do to try and right the ship. With such a mixed performance, which LA Galaxy team will show up for El Trafico, The team that played the Union off the pitch in the first half, or the one that lost the game? Special Guest J.R. Lebert (The Scarf) from @DefendersoftheBanc Podcast

The LA Galaxy had a touchdown of goals scored on them on Saturday, May 10, 2025, as the New York Red Bulls got revenge for their MLS final loss with a 7-0 win over LA. It was a match that the Galaxy never showed up to, as they were utterly dominated for their worse loss in their history. We take a look at another low and another history-making night, and ask ourselves, is it time for a change at the top for the Galaxy?

The LA Galaxy will get their 12th bite, this time of the Big Apple, when they travel east to face off against their 2024 MLS Cup rival, the NY Red Bulls on Saturday, May 10. With LA looking for their first win of the season, and New York in the bottom half of the table, this will be a different match than MLS Cup.

The LA Galaxy have played 11 matches and still have no wins after a 1-0 away defeat to Sporting Kansas City on Sunday, May 4, 2025. It was a match that the Galaxy should have won, but an own goal and sloppy finishing conspired to keep them from their first three points of the season. Not only did the Galaxy not win, but more bad luck befell them as DP players, Gabriel Pec and Joseph Painstil went down injured. We take a look at a historic night, why LA's offense is stuttering, and where the blame game needs to start. Is it time to start making major changes? Special Guest Dave Orona of LA is Our House. Special Guest Dave Orona of LA is Our House.

The LA Galaxy are still searching for their first win after traveling to Austin, Texas on Saturday April 19 and getting a big helping of L, after losing 1-0 courtesy of a Brandon Vasquez goal. The Galaxy made plenty of chances to win the match, but as the story has been all, season, did not take their chances, could not keep a clean sheet and fell to another defeat that leaves in rooted firmly in the cellar of the league table. We'll talk about what the Galaxy did well, how they created the looks that Pec should've put away, how the defense was turned back once again, if there are any silver linings from that performance, and how the Galaxy showed some fight, but after the final whistle. Plus, is the hot seat getting hotter for head coach Greg Vanney?

The Los Angeles Galaxy is headed back out on the road to take on Austin FC on Saturday, April 19. LA will look to grab its first win and first three points of the season over an Austin side who will be looking to bounce back after a 5-1 away loss to Vancouver. LA will try to build on the heroic performance they put in over the weekend to put together a full 90 minute performance that will finally allow it to claim a victory. With both sides needing a victory, LA's offense will need to be at its sharpest against a normally very solid defensive side. But with the Whitecaps scoring five goals on the Verde, have the Galaxy spotted Austin's weakness and can they take advantage of it?

The LA Galaxy showed huge heart this weekend to draw 1-1 with the Houston Dynamo despite being a man down for 60+ minutes. Even though the Galaxy is still looking for their first win of the league campaign, performances like this will encourage the team, as they displayed a spirit that will serve them well for the rest of the year. Captain Diego Fagundez was the catalyst, as his energy inspired the Galaxy, but his free kick tied the game. A curling effort drew the scores level, how it would end, but Fagundez showed his leadership qualities in the tie. With the Galaxy showing fight, heart, and spirit to get the draw, how can they capitalize on the good performance going forward? Special Guest LA Galaxy Chief Revenue Officer, Urel Martinez

The LA Galaxy might have hit its lowest point of the season after a lifeless and static 2-0 away loss to Real Salt Lake on Saturday, April 5. In matchweek 7, it was hoped the Galaxy would get their first win of the season, instead they followed up a good Champions Cup draw against Tigres with the disappointing loss. After the poor performance, the Galaxy must figure out how to bounce back in the quarterfinal second leg in Mexico, and build upon the draw achieved at home. Just one away goal will see LA upset the odds and make the semi-final. With nothing to lose for the Galaxy, are they poised for the upset against Mexican opposition? Special Guest Co-Host Alex Ruiz of the Galactic Tribune

The Los Angeles Galaxy tamed some Tigres on Tues, April 1, at home in the quarterfinal round of the Concacaf Champions Cup, by battling the Mexican powerhouse to a scoreless draw in a physical and tense match. Now, there is everything to play for in the second leg next week, but before the Galaxy faces Tigres again, they'll try to pick up a league win once more when they travel to face RSL over the weekend. With the Galaxy putting in a gutsy midweek performance, are they poised to breakout in a big way against Real Salt Lake?

The LA Galaxy have lost their unbeaten run and are back at ground zero after a disappointing 2-1 loss at home to Orlando City on Saturday, March 29, in a match that they led and then threw away after a series of mistakes. The loss leaves them looking for their first win of the MLS season and has Greg Vanney looking for answers as things aren't breaking LA's way. We'll take a look at the Galaxy's good start, how this match slipped away, and another chapter in the Galaxy's goalkeeping saga. Plus, is the upcoming CCC match against Tigres a must win?

The LA Galaxy is back at home on Saturday, March 29, and is still looking for its first MLS win of the season when they host Orlando City SC for the first time in three years. The Galaxy will be looking to add to its unbeaten run of three games with a precious three points at home and will have Winger Joseph Paintsil returning to help find the win, but the Galaxy defense will need to be up to the task to stop Orlando's highly potent offense. With the Galaxy starting to put together more cohesive and improved performances, will they get a boost from Painstil's return, limit mistakes, and take advantage of being at home to treat their fans to an important win that could course correct the Galaxy's season? Special Guest Luis Carlos Pineda of @LoudandProudOrlando Podcast

The Los Angeles Galaxy are in last place no longer after a 2-2 road draw against Minnesota United on Saturday, March 22. The reigning champs picked up another point after twice coming from behind to tie the game and steal a point. With these results, the Galaxy are now unbeaten in three straight matches and have started to put together performances that should give fans encouragement.

The LA Galaxy find themselves on the road again this weekend, as they travel to Minnesota to face adverse weather and stiff opposition in Loons on March 22, 2025, as they look for their first MLS win and their first three points of the campaign. They'll face a motivated and scrappy Minnesota United side, who will be eager to get revenge for last year's MLS Cup playoff elimination and will be hoping to erase a sour 3-3 draw away from recent memory in which they blew a three-goal lead. The Galaxy has a good chance to get that first victory and ruin the host's day, as the loons have several key absences missing through international duty. With the conditions favorable for LA, can they take advantage of a depleted MNUFC team and get their first win of the MLS season on Saturday?

The LA Galaxy picked up their first point of the season with a spirited 1-1 away draw against the Portland Timbers on Sunday, March 16. The MLS Cup champions continued their improved play in the road draw, with the side that defeated Herediano midweek called back into action against the Timbers. And they once again showed why they ran out overwhelming winners in the Champions Cup, with several energetic and solid performances leading the way for the Galaxy to get a result in a place that hasn't been kind to LA. With two straight, improved performances under their belt, how close is this team to the LA Galaxy team that won the champs their sixth star and do they have another level to give before they match those title-winning heights? Special Guest Justin Ruderman

The Los Angeles Galaxy picked up their first win of the season on Wednesday, March 12 with a dominant 4-1 win over Costa Rican Champion Herediano in the second leg of the Champions Cup at Dignity Health Sports Park to advance from the Round of 16 and earn a date with Tigres in the quarterfinals. The MLS Cup champion finally woke from their slumber with an improved performance led by the players pressed into service due to the injuries LA has sustained. And they took their opportunities with both hands, as they were the catalyst for a complete performance that Greg Vanney will be hoping is the turn-around moment in the season. With a motivating win under their belt, important players ready to come back from injury and contribute the squad, and the heaviest part of March's congested fixture period mostly over, will the LA Galaxy be able to turn around their season from a less-than-ideal start when they visit the road against Portland over the weekend? 

The Los Angeles Galaxy find themselves in free fall after their latest defeat, a frustrating 3-0 loss against St. Louis City at home on Sunday, March 9. The Galaxy improved from their previous futilities but could still not find the net, as several good chances were wasted by a team still trying to get on the same wavelength. They were punished yet again for miscommunication between the goalkeeper and his defense, as St. Louis took advantage of the miscues to get their first goal of the season and change the course of the game. With a fourth straight defeat, the Galaxy are starting to hear it from fans, who walked out en masse before full-time and who booed at the final whistle. As has been the way this season so far, the Galaxy have just three days before being put to the test again at home when they host Herediano in the second leg of their round of 16 Champions Cup tie. Can the Galaxy overcome the 1-0 away deficit from the first leg and kickstart their season in a “must-win” game?

The Los Angeles Galaxy remains winless to start the season after a 1-0 debut Champions Cup loss to Herediano in Costa Rica on Wednesday, March 5. LA had several chances to change the scoreline, but has been unable to find the net but once all campaign and were made to pay for a mistake in the back. After a third straight loss in which several in the lineup were Galaxy second-string players, we look at what the bright spots are from the defeat and who could be the players to step up for the Galaxy during their injury crisis. The current champs have little time to dwell on the defeat as they host St. Louis City on Sunday, March 9, in a bid to jumpstart their season and taste victory before a crucial second leg in the Champions Cup next week. Will the LA Galaxy finally get their first elusive victory of the year against the visitors from St. Louis on Sunday? Special Guest Mo Seka of MoFutbolTV

The LA Galaxy have lost two games in a row to start their 2025 season after being defeated on the road by the Vancouver Whitecaps 2-1 on Sunday, March 2. The match started horribly for the Galaxy as they conceded within the first two minutes, but things didn't look much better for them the rest of the match, as they struggled to put much of a game together against a high-pressing Whitecaps team. To make matters worse, an already injury-hit Galaxy was forced to withdraw two starters due to being hurt in the loss, with one looking like it could be a long-term absence. They now travel to Costa Rica to kick off their Champions Cup campaign in a wounded state. How will the Galaxy survive this early-season moment filled with adversity and injuries? 

The Los Angeles Galaxy takes its first road trip of the season as they travel to Vancouver to face the Whitecaps on Sunday, March 2, in an effort to avoid a two-game skid. They'll face a Whitecaps team that won big on opening day at a ground they've typically had trouble at. After the stunning loss to San Diego FC, the Galaxy needs to pick up points, but a congested fixture list, which includes a stop in Costa Rica, is making things complicated for Coach Greg Vanney. Will the Galaxy get a win at Vancouver and get a bounce before they play their first Champions Cup match? Special Guest Co-host of Corner of the Galaxy Podcast and LA Times Sports Writer, Kevin Baxter.

What were the key problems that saw the Galaxy fall to San Diego, and is the Galaxy struggling the new normal?
