At last! Marco Reus celebrates first championship title
Los Angeles Galaxy have won their sixth championship title in the North American Major League Soccer. Ex-BVB star Marco Reus was thus able to celebrate his first championship title at the age of 35.
The Californians beat the New York Red Bulls 2:1 in the play-off final in front of their home crowd on Saturday (local time). It was the record champions' first MLS title win since 2014. Joseph Paintsil and former WAC professional Dejan Joveljic scored in the first quarter of an hour for the Galaxy, who were without the injured Riqui Puig (formerly of Barcelona).
Substitute Marco Reus won his first league title after seven runner-up finishes with Borussia Dortmund. The Red Bulls fought in vain to equalize after Sean Nealis (28) made it 1-2.
Penultimate last year
Last year, the Galaxy finished second-last in the Western Conference and failed to reach the play-offs. This year, the club finished the regular season in second place in the Western Conference. The Red Bulls missed out on their first MLS title after the underdogs eliminated defending champions Columbus and New York City FC, among others, in the play-off.
