While star striker Robbie Findley prepares for the first round of the World Cup Saturday in South Africa, his ReAL teammates are busy preparing for the biggetst game of the season.
Wednesday night, 7:00 p.m. at Rio Tinto Stadium, ReAL will look to hand the L.A. Galaxy their first loss of the season.
The Galaxy are 10-0-2 in twelve games this season and have 32 points on the season. By far the most in Major League Soccer.
ReAL is second in the Western Conference with 20 points, sitting at 11-6-3 on the season.
"This is the matchup of the season," says defender Nat Borchers, " between the two best teams in the Western Conference, if not the league. So, we're very excited for the matchup."
Kyle Beckerman knows how important the victory is for ReAL if they want to contend for the conference title, "This is a team we have to beat. Hopefully, we can be the first to beat 'em and then it will just keep going from there and then we can catch them."
