CARSON, Calif. (AP) — Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez and Sega Coulibaly scored in the first half, and the LA Galaxy ended LAFC’s unbeaten start to the season with a 2-1 win on Saturday. The Galaxy remained unbeaten at home in the city rivalry known as El Trafico. Cristian Arango had a goal for LAFC, who looked to have tied it in the seventh minute of second-half stoppable time before a VAR review determined they were offsides in the buildup to Latif Blessing’s apparent goal.
