Three for Thursday: Blues, Galaxy & Chivas USA
Local non-World Cup soccer notes include:
*The undefeated W-League Pali Blues, who have three wins and a draw as they seek a third successive league crown, play two home games in three days starting at 7 o'clock tonight against the Seattle Sounders. Unsure how to get to the stadium in Pacific Palisades? Here's a map. And don't forget your Teddy bears Saturday.
*The Galaxy have learned their potential opponents in the third round of the U.S. Open Cup.
*Chivas USA played a scrimmage Wednesday against a local club before taking a World Cup break.
