Los stun LA in the Galaxy derby, paves way for Revs FC
Gerhard Tuba scored one in each half to shock league leaders LA Galaxy 2-0 in front of their home fans in the second Galaxy derby of the season. Los Galaxy who have not had a very good first season, stunned the crowd as early as the 3'. The home side then piled on the pressure and had most of the possession. However, Los Galaxy managed to withstand the pressure until the break.

It was more of the same in the second half as LA Galaxy went forward in search of the equaliser. But it was the visitors that had the ball in the back of the net at the 61' mark. It was Tuba again who finished with aplomb. After the second, chances were few and far for the visitors as LA Galaxy threw in a third striker in their bid to get back into the game.

The win avenged their defeat earlier this season and effectively gives a chance for second placed Revs FC to reduce LA Galaxy's lead at the top to one with a win in their match later. Los Galaxy climb up to occupy the last Champions League spot but ABBI FC should climb above Los Galaxy if they win today.

Los Galaxy Boss remains cautious despite the impressive win, "Our last two matches are against Revs & ABBI. It will be tricky. We will treat every match like a final. If we play with the right mentality, we can secure promotion and a Champions League place."

"This is just one victory and I applaud the boys but they have to keep this momentum going and not slip up like how we did against Vera."
