The Serbian striker Dejan Joveljic scored in the minute 058 the goal that gave the LA Galaxy victory this Saturday by 1-0 against Nashville SC after a game in which the Angelenos had crashed again and again against the visiting defense.
Joveljic, who had entered the field of play at minute 77 replacing a frustrated Kévin Cabral, received a pass into space from Derrick Williams inside the area and sent the ball to the nets with a shot to the far post of the goal defended by Joe Willis.
Joveljic’s goal culminated a long and unsuccessful until then night of siege by Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernández’s Galaxy , who had not found a way to penetrate Nashville’s five-man defense.
The best occasions for angels inos arrived in the second half with clear opportunities such as a shot at the post by Efraín Álvarez, a foul by Douglas Costa that narrowly missed or a missed shot by Kévin Cabral inside the box after a cross from Chicharito.
With this victory “in extremis”, the Galaxy have gone four days without defeat with three wins and one draw, fighting for the top spot in the MLS Western Conference.
