HIGHLIGHTS: LA Galaxy vs. LAFC | July 4, 2023 | Rose Bowl edition sets single-game attendance record
It’s a July 4th celebration for the history books.
The 20th El Tráfico edition between LA Galaxy and LAFC has drawn 82,110 fans, establishing a new MLS single-game attendance record.
Tuesday night’s crosstown rivalry was held at the Rose Bowl, a historic venue in Pasadena, California. This Matchday 23 fixture was originally set for MLS is Back weekend as the 2023 campaign began, but got shifted to summertime due to a postponement (inclement weather).
Charlotte FC held the previous record, welcoming 74,479 fans to Bank of America Stadium for the 2022 expansion side’s inaugural home match.
What a magical game. Definitely one of the better El Tráfico games
Milan fan but my first time actually watching an MLS game, mostly because of Chiellini and because I love LA, and it was entertained watching this game. Will definitely be watching more of the top MLS games. Puig and Bouanga looked incredible on the ball.
What a first game to watch!!
Forza Inter 🖤💙
@ハディさん (Hadi)Forza Milan, the bigger club 🔴⚫️
@Crius XIbigger yet you guys betray your own legend, Maldini
deserve downfall next season
@ハディさん (Hadi) Maldini is a club legend and the firing wasn’t great optically, but the man had a terrible transfer window and actually got a little too much credit sometimes. He was great at closing deals, but he was not really the one doing all the scouting and homework. Moncada did not get enough credit. Cardinale gave Maldini the chance to earn his trust starting from last year’s contract extension and unfortunately Maldini failed. Maldini also wanted Pioli out which several people at the club did not agree with. Love him, but not flawless.
Great Game with over 82k in attendance! MLS is growing!
show how much love LA Galaxy had ❤
just went to Columbus Crew game. Sold out. awesome stadium and the crowd was loving it. Crew won 2-1 over Red Bulls
Wow like the champions league final in Istanbul
@ハディさん (Hadi)bro the stadium was blacked out😂
What an atmosphere i am very proud MLS yall should be proud you did it 🙏🏿
Soccer should triumph over Baseball 🎉🎉
@ハディさん (Hadi)Depending on the age of the person you ask It already has
@GoGo USAliterally mlb still have way more view than mls
unless you want to say “you can’t judge sport popularity based on socmed”
@ハディさん (Hadi) It really should. I’d be okay with soccer being the #3 here. It’s my second favorite sport. Only real football tops it for me
@ハディさん (Hadi) I love all Sports I watched my fav baseball teams highlights 4 times this week but my fav soccer team 1 Time a week. I’m always rooting for the boys but it means so much more watching the soccer team
Simply the best rivalry in the U.S. More games at the Rose Bowl, please.
Why was it held at the rose bowl
@Dr.Danger539 the anniversary of galaxy playing their first game there
“best rivalry in the US” lmao just tell us you started watching MLS 6 years ago
Cough Timbers Sounders cough
@HMbeav8404 meh I think the issue is that both the Timbers and Sounders have taken a step back the last jandful of years and don’t have any real marquee names that would excite folks outside of the Pacific North West. Great Rivalary with so so much history but maybe just not the crown jewel it was say 5 years ago
it doesnt matter what team you root for. if you’re a soccer fan, you gotta love seeing a crowd like that at an MLS game. amazing atmosphere!!
This just makes me so happy to see the passion both LA teams have. I’ve been a galaxy fan since the cobi jones days and they won the first mls cup but I love seeing lafc do so good as well. We love LA ❤
LA dynasty continue 💛💙🤍
Great comment. Love LA
DC united won the first MLS cup
@cakeisyum123think he means LA’s first MLS Cup
Nah LAFC garbage this is a Galaxy town.
What a game
What a classic
EL TRAFICO
Absolutely beautiful soccer play 💯
*What a game!*
*No other rivalry like this in the MLS. For years these two have been putting in some of the most intense matches* 🔥
Yup
Canadian Classique>>>
EL TRAFICO 🔥🏆🔥
Not even close to Cascadia cup
I gotta say it was amazing game. Not saying cause we won but it really was. I swear El Trafico never disappoints. Every single rivalary game I feel the overdose chaotic and dramatic soccer in my veins. This rivalary as fun as Boca v River and Madrid v Barca. Don’t @ me. I think this is the only think both Galaxy and LAFC supporters can agree. 😂
Let’s go Galaxy 💛💙🤍
100% agree. This match is a must watch even if you are not a fan of either team
@Christopherel trafico 🎉
Agreed 👍
El Trafico because of the traffic jams in la?😂
