The past few days have been a grind for the original club from Los Angeles. After earning a hard fought away point on an icy surface at Allianz Field on Wednesday, fans were saddened to learn Romain Alessandrini had knee surgery ruling the Frenchman out until September.

Sunday the LA Galaxy play for the third time in nine days vs. a talented but unpredictable Real Salt Lake squad. (5:00 PT, Spectrum SportsNet)
