Tyler Boyd, Riqui Puig and Billy Sharp scored as the Galaxy took advantage of 10-man Chicago for the win.
CARSON — The long road up the Western Conference standings and the hunt for a playoff berth resumed for the Galaxy on Saturday.
Since the last game the Galaxy played, the club underwent a makeover during the summer transfer window, acquiring forward Billy Sharp, defender Maya Yoshida and midfielders Diego Fagundez, Michael Barrios and Edwin Cerrillo. Yoshida and Cerrillo were inserted into the starting lineup. Sharp entered as second-half substitute in the 70th minute and scored his first MLS goal, converting a penalty kick in the 90th minute.
It paid off in the 28th minute off of a free kick as Tyler Boyd scored for a 1-0 lead. The initial ball from Douglas Costa came off of a Chicago defender and right into Boyd’s path.
