Update: Philadelphia has given up the most goals in the league at 25. Los Angeles has yielded only 19. Philadelphia has not beaten a Western Conference opponent in MLS play since May 2014, and L.A. is 0-1-3 against Eastern Conference teams this season. Two weeks ago the Galaxy had its 29-game home unbeaten streak snapped against Vancouver. But L.A. now has the added firepower of Robbie Keane and Gyasi Zardes, back from international duty. Keane and Zardes scored a combined four goals on Wednesday (three by Keane) as the Galaxy romped to a 6-1 victory over PSA Elite, an amateur squad from Irvine, in the U.S. Open Cup. The Galaxy will face San Jose on July 1 in the next round.
