Just happen to catch it as it was starting on ESPN last night.
What a crowd. Very nice. Almost as enthusiastic as Timbers or Sounders games. Also black and white smoke, fans in costumes with face painted reminded me of Raider Nation.....
The game.... Well, it was the first soccer game I've watch wince WC so what do you think - it was crap. Also we are reminded that we live in SoCal, inspire of initial crowd. Be the half time, noticeable amount of seats were emptied. Sort of like how people leave at the end of 6th and 7th in baseball games to beat the traffic out.
Those left with LAFC leading 2-0 and probably was surprised to find the final 2-2. Both LAG goals came in the last 10 minutes or so. LAG was luck to escape with a draw.
But it was encouraging to see so many fans out there. This week has been quite demanding for soccer fans. Man U vs AC Milan on Wed, and LAFC vs LAG on Thurs. I think AS Roma is playing in SD too.
