LA Soccer beat

Luis wasn't at the game last night, exploring other possible career options instead. So that meant I had a Chivas USA assignment to cover the game.

Here's my match article. And reaction piece.

Eh?

As a Quakes fan, pretty simple to see that Chivas played better once Corrales was out hurt...how come you did not mention this?

I have been quite impressed with the changes the Quakes have made, but also believe that they are one injury away from competing for a playoff spot...I hope this is not the injury.

On the Chivas side, Sasha is looking quite good, Razov's left foot let him down a few times, and the backline held their form very well.

Entertaining for 0-0...way more entertaining than other Quakes matches that ended 0-0 earlier in the season.

Good luck in the Champions League!

Corrales went down so early that it was difficult to really establish how well either team was playing at that point, plus the gamer I was assigned was supposed to focus on Chivas as a team. Danny Bueno did the Earthquakes centered article.

As far as Luis goes, any journalist with a clear grasp of the realities of the media world today is looking into other job options. It's not as if we have a choice.
