Up next for the Galaxy: Saturday at Colorado

Share

When: 6 p.m.

Where: Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, Commerce City, Colo.

On the air: TV: KDOC, KWHY; Radio: 1150, 1330.

Records: Galaxy 2-3, Colorado 3-3.

Update: David Junior Lopes’ debut on the Galaxy backline last week went well, and with two goals late in the second half, the defending MLS champs were able to escape with a 3-1 win over the Portland Timbers. Now they head to Colorado looking not only for their first road win but for the confidence and swagger they’ve been missing all season. Landon Donovan played an inspired match against Portland and David Beckham’s 30-plus-yard rocket in stoppage time was one of the league’s best goals of the year, so the Galaxy may be on the verge of a breakthrough. The Rapids have been shut out in their last two matches but are 2-0 at home.
