LA Galaxy Remain Winless After 4-2 Loss to Portland Timbers

The Portland Timbers defeated the LA Galaxy 4-2 at Dignity Health Sports Park, extending the Galaxy's winless start to the 2025 MLS season to ten games, the worst by any MLS champion in history. Portland's unbeaten streak reached seven games, with key contributions from David Da Costa, Santiago Moreno, and Kevin Kelsy, while Antony provided three assists. Despite a late push with goals from Christian Ramirez and Marco Reus, the Galaxy could not overcome a three-goal deficit. Jonathan Rodriguez sealed the win for Portland with a penalty. The Galaxy, who have struggled to replicate last season's home success, now face increased scrutiny over head coach Greg Vanney's future as their goal differential dropped to a league-worst minus-12. This match marked the 40th all-time meeting between the two teams, with the series now level at 15-15-10.
