A tie felt like a win for Galaxy — they twice erased a two-goal deficit and snatched the draw in the final touch . For LAFC, it might sting like a loss: up 3–1, only to concede with the last kick .
This latest edition marked the 26th El Tráfico, and with six goals and a last-second equalizer, it capped off as one of the most dramatic yet
