After 17 weeks of domination in the Aperutra, San Luis was outplayed for 90 minutes and lost 3 - 1 to on loan Cuauhtemoc Blanco and Santos Laguno away with the return match set for this afternoon.

A look behind and a look ahead during the 1st round of the MLS Playoffs.

I was talking to our boyhttp://www.theoffsiderules.blogspot.com/ today and we bring up the LA Galaxy v DC United game this weekend. Huge game for both teams, but the pressure that must be on the Galaxy to start winning games has to be huge. Winless since mid-June and on 26 points after 24 games is a bad place to be in. With that in mind, they are only five points adrift of second place Real Salt Lake so this game is huge for them. As for DC, they are hanging on to a playoff spot  at the moment, so every point is vital for them as well. With so much at stake for both teams, and both teams needing all three points, this could definitely be a fun one.  Check this one out Saturday night at 8pm PST on Fox Soccer Channel.
