But what really made the game another instant-classic El Tráfico was how the Galaxy fought for everything they got and absorbed almost constant pressure to secure the victory. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the Galaxy's victory and a little thing called "heart." And while we usually shy away from talking about heart, it's something the Galaxy seem to have already figured out in this very young season. Josh and Kevin will start with some updates on new Designated Player Kevin Cabral and tell you why he probably could have played on Saturday, but why you should definitely expect him this weekend against Austin FC. The guys discuss the standout performances from the Galaxy defense and why Jonathan Bond, Derrick Williams, and Julian Araujo all deserved mention on the MLS Team of the Week. And are the Galaxy just catching teams at the right time? Can an argument be made that Seattle is the only good team they've played? Or is something else at play here. Plus, the guys will get you updated on transfer rumors and tell you why a former Chelsea player isn't on the list of people the Galaxy want to bring in. But there is someone. Is the second rumor the Galaxy's mystery man? We've got a packed show ready to get you through a busy week that ends with another home game. What colors will the Galaxy wear this weekend? We'll make some guesses! Thanks for listening and watching. And please don't forget to subscribe, like, and comment on all of our shows!

And it gets celebrated at least three times a year. That's right! It's the first El Tráfico of 2021, which means that your LA Galaxy will be hosting LAFC this Saturday. We're going to do what we always do and get you ready for the biggest game and the biggest rivalry in MLS. And to give us the best insight into what might be happening on the field this weekend, we've enlisted the help of Galaxy midfielder Victor Vazquez. Hosts Josh Guesman and Sophie Nicolaou talk with Victor about the role Galaxy head coach Greg Vanney has him play and what the vibe in the clubhouse is. We'll also ask him about his injury in Seattle and if he'll be available for this weekend's match. And after we're done talking to Victor, Josh and Sophie will discuss the El Trafico precursor -- El Traficito between USL sides LA Galaxy II and Las Vegas Lights. There's a lot of fun to be had watching the future of the Galaxy on full display, and we have a little hint at how that will become a regular thing on the podcast! But today's show is all about Galaxy news you can trust and about coming clean on a massive failure ahead of the Galaxy's game with LAFC. Did anyone catch the injury news ahead of the game? You didn't because nobody asked. So we'll go over some of what was said during the media call and tell you the injury concerns we have headed into Saturday's match. Finally, we've got a big game preview from the Hammer, and we get you ready for a game against a formidable opponent. But for whatever reason, we're feeling optimistic. Can the Galaxy get a win over LAFC at home? Let's find out! As always, we appreciate you joining us and remind you to stay safe at the stadium this weekend!
