The MLS cup is back. The playoffs started very well and it all started with the match between LA Galaxy and Nashville. There, the team of Chicharito, Douglas Costa, and Riqui Puig gets closer to the dream of being the champion of the United States this season. Although their side gave much to talk about.

But not good things. Despite being the MLS playoffs it was clear that these are not the best teams in the country. So the Galaxy will have to work harder if they want to be the main contender to be champions. The first half was terrible, even considering that the Galaxy and Nashville fought for the ball in midfield.

The second half was not better either but it stood out for two events. The first was that they annulled an LA Galaxy goal. Chicharito was the scorer but after a VAR review, the goal was disallowed. And second, the only goal of the game. Julian Araujo was the scorer of the only goal of the match.

The unexpected hero: Julián Araujo

It was a Mexican who saved the LA Galaxy but it wasn't Javier "Chicharito" Hernández but the defender Julián Araujo. After a cross from Grandsir, the Mexican defender headed in to score the only goal of the game. With this, Chicharito's dream of being a champion with the LA Galaxy lives on. His next game will be "El Tráfico" against LAFC. WILL they be able to beat Carlos Vela's team?
