The San Jose Eathquakes picked up a vital 3-2 victory against the LA Galaxy, with help from goals in the 13th, 14th, and 48th minutes by Cristian Espinoza, Jeremy Ebobisse, and Marcos Johan López. Dejan Joveljic attempted a Galaxy comeback in the second half, with goals in the 48th and 88th minute, but Earthquakes’ JT Marcinkowski’s season-high nine saves proved to be difference in the California Clásico.
