LA Galaxy U-16's open Liga Bancomer International Tournament with 1-0 over Philadelphia Union

The LA Galaxy Academy U-16's are in Mexico City to take part in the Liga Bancomer International Tournament.


The Galaxy began group play this morning with a 1-0 victory over the Philadelphia Union's U-16 squad. After a scoreless first half, the Galaxy stole the ball from 35 yards out and played a quick ball forward that found Kevin Negrete. Negrete calmly gathered the pass at the top of the 18-yard box and slotted his shot past the on-rushing Philadelphia goalkeeper.

Next up, the Galaxy will face FC Dallas U-16's tomorrow, August 5 at 10 .a.m. PT and fans will be able to watch live at LAGalaxy.com.
