LA Galaxy 2009 Schedule

Summary

With more afternoon games

Article

Ready to forget last year's dismal conclusion, the Los Angeles Galaxy announced their schedule for the 2009 Major League Soccer regular season.

The club will once again play 30 games, 15 at home and 15 on the road, in 2009, starting with their season opener against four-time MLS Cup champion, D.C. United, at The Home Depot Center on Sunday, March 22, noon.

Other highlights include the Galaxy’s first-ever game against the expansion team, Seattle Sounders FC, at Qwest Field on Sunday, May 10, noon; the match against defending MLS Cup Champion Columbus Crew on Sunday, May 17, noon; and the Galaxy’s annual Fourth of July match -- this year they go against the New England Revolution (8 p.m. kickoff).

For the second consecutive year, the Galaxy play six matches against their two California rivals, Chivas USA and the San Jose Earthquakes. In 2008, the Galaxy had a combined record of 3-1-2 against these two rivals.

With more afternoon games than usual, the LA Galaxy are now accepting deposits for the 2009 season. A non-refundable deposit of 25% per seat secures your place for each 2009 Galaxy regular season game, plus great benefits including exclusive events with the team, special season seat holder gifts, and much more.
