2011 Los Angeles Galaxy season
Encyclopedia
The 2011 Los Angeles Galaxy season was the club's 17th year of existence as well as their 16th season in Major League Soccer
and their 16th consecutive year in the top-flight of American soccer. The Galaxy entered the season as the defending MLS Supporters' Shield titleholders.
Most notably, the Galaxy became the third straight team to win consecutive Supporters' Shields, after D.C. United
(2006–07) and Columbus Crew
(2008–09). The Galaxy clinched their fourth Shield on October 8, after Seattle Sounders FC
lost 0–2 at home to Philadelphia Union. They also won their third MLS Cup
, defeating Houston Dynamo
1–0 in the final
.
Outside of league play, the Galaxy participated in the CONCACAF Champions League
and the U.S. Open Cup, presently in Group Stage, and reaching the Quarterfinals, respectively. Along with these competitive tournaments, the Galaxy played in the friendly-match World Football Challenge
, losing to Real Madrid
and drawing to Manchester City
.
Their record in all competitions, (yet excluding their Asia-Pacific tour) was 28-9-11, earning 95/144 points from 48 matches.
-finalist, Edson Buddle
left the Galaxy to sign with second division
German club, Ingolstadt 04
through the end of the 2012–13 2. Bundesliga
season.
On January 9, 2010, rumors about David Beckham
potentially ending his three and a half year MLS career by signing with Tottenham Hotspur
or going on loan with the Premier League club ended. The Galaxy announced that Beckham would be training with Hotspur for two-weeks time, before joining Los Angeles for the start of pre-season training. The news made it the first time since 2008 that Beckham did not go on an off-season loan to Europe.
at Qwest Field in rainy Seattle on March 15. Second-year midfielder Juninho
had the lone goal of the match. Although they were back home at the Home Depot Center for the second match of the season on March 20, the Galaxy once again played in the rain. A rare Southern California rainstorm made for difficult conditions in the 1-1 draw with the New England Revolution
. Juninho scored the equalizer for the Galaxy, his second goal of the season - which already matched his goal total from his debut 2010 season
. The toughest test of the early season came on March 26 - and the Galaxy failed. Traveling to Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah
without captain Landon Donovan
(who was away on international duty with the USA national team
), the Galaxy lost 4-1 to Real Salt Lake
. To be fair, Rio Tinto is a difficult venue for any visiting club, as Real hasn't lost at home in nearly two years. The only consolation was seeing Juan Pablo Ángel
open his Galaxy goal account in his first start for his new club. Ángel had been suffering from a virus and didn't start the first two matches (though he did come on as a substitute in the second half against the Revolution).
with a 1-0 victory over the Philadelphia Union at the Home Depot Center on April 2. Donovan Ricketts
and Omar Gonzalez
saw their first action of the season after recovering from minor injuries. Leonardo
headed in a David Beckham
free kick in the 33rd minute for the game's only goal. It was the defender's first goal in a Galaxy shirt. A 53rd minute red card for Chris Birchall
meant that the Galaxy had to spend the majority of the second half protecting their narrow lead a man down.
Next up was a 3-games-in-8-days cross-country road trip. To complicate matters, the Galaxy would be without captain Landon Donovan
, who did not travel with the club while he nursed a knee injury. The first match of the trip came at RFK Stadium
in Washington, D.C.
on April 9. Mike Magee
nodded in a Beckham corner to give the Galaxy the early lead. But Charlie Davies
drew a dubious penalty and converted from the spot himself in the 90th minute to save the draw for D.C. United
. The squad traveled to Toronto
to take on Toronto FC
4 days later. The fans at BMO Field
saw a largely unentertaining affair resulting in a scoreless draw. Most notable from a Galaxy perspective was the sending off of Juninho
in stoppage time of the 2nd half. Also, Beckham received his 5th yellow card of the season in the 44th minute. These two events meant that the Galaxy would be without 3/4ths of their preferred midfield (Donovan, Beckham, and Juninho) when they finished their trip on April 17 in Bridgeview, IL
against the Chicago Fire. Yet it was no problem as the Galaxy won 1-2 behind goals from Chad Barrett
and Gonzalez with Miguel López
providing the assists on both goals. Although there was one concerning casualty on the Toyota Park
field - Leonardo picked up a right knee injury late in the match. It was revealed a couple days later that he tore the ACL
and LCL
in the knee, and he is expected to miss the remainder of the season. Heading home to LA, the Galaxy had picked up a very respectable 5 points on their travels.
