San Jose got their first win on the road this season and also made history as they won back-to-back regular season games against the LA Galaxy for the first time since the first MLS season in 1996. 

The first half was all San Jose as they came away with all three of their goals. San Jose's first goal came 12th minute. Cristian Espinoza took and scored the PK. One minute later Jamiro Monteiro provided a quick through ball to Jeremy Ebobisse, who ran towards the right side of the goal for a quick shot to put San Jose even further ahead. San Jose would score its third goal in the 40th minute. Marcos Johan López was running up the right side of the pitch, and as he went around three defenders, he passed the ball to Benjamin Kikanovic, who was standing to his right, he then waited for López to steer clear of the defenders. When López got open in front of the net, Kikanovic passed the ball back for a nice tap-in goal. 

Los Angeles was down 0-3 in the second half but almost came away with at least a tie. Dejan Joveljic put the team on his back as he scored only two goals for the Galaxy. His first goal came within the first two minutes of the half. The Galaxy played a long ball to Kevin Cabral, who went running towards the goal and then abruptly stopped, tripping a San Jose defender, and then passed to Joveljic, who kicked the ball to the top left corner for a goal. Douglas Costa had a nice shot that was about to curl in for a shot, but a diving JT Marcinkowski made sure to get a full hand on it for a save. The San Jose defense was really put to the test in the 59th minute when the ball that was crossed by Rayan Raveloson was about to be headed in by Kevin Cabral, but Tanner Beason stood tall at the goal-line to deflect a possible goal. In the final three minutes, Dejan Joveljic scored his second goal after receiving a long ball from Douglas Costa in which he had to chest the ball to regain balance. After he did that, he turned around, dribbled the ball a couple of times between his feet, and then powered it home.
