Galaxy Set U.S. Open Cup Qualifying Date
The Galaxy host the Colorado Rapids at 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 7 in an U.S. Open Cup qualifying game in Carson.
The winner enters the knockout tournament proper.
Or as one wag put it in the newsroom "I see the Galaxy will be out of the cup by April." (Ahem).
The Galaxy, two-time cup winners, lost 1-0 to the Rapids in a qualifying game last year at Home Depot Center.
It's the second bonus game of the season for season ticket holders.

Hey enough with the Galaxy bashing! You'd think this was the LA Times.
