Marco Reus and the LA Galaxy lost 2:4 (1:2) away to Portland Timbers in the US soccer league MLS. In his fourth appearance in Major League Soccer, the long-time Dortmund midfielder was substituted on in the second half.
Reus came on in the 61st minute with the score at 2:3, but was unable to help the Galaxy to make a comeback. The midfielder did not shoot at goal. In his debut for Los Angeles, the 35-year-old had shone with a goal and an assist. In the following two games, Reus moved into the starting eleven, but this time he was back on the bench.
The Galaxy lost for the seventh time in 30 games this season, but with 16 wins to their name the team from Los Angeles continues to lead the Western Conference. Reus moved to the Galaxy in mid-August after twelve years at Borussia Dortmund. The 35-year-old will play abroad for the first time in his career.
