Holse, St. Louis City beat Galaxy 6-2, tie MLS record for longest unbeaten
streak at 20 games
ST. LOUIS (AP) --- Carlo Holse scored three goals in the first 21 minutes and
had the second hat trick in club history to help St. Louis City beat the LA
Galaxy 6-2 on Sunday night to extend their unbeaten streak across all
competitions to 20 games and tie the MLS record.
St. Louis, which is 13-0-5 in its last 18 regular-season games, tied the mark
set when the New York Red Bulls went unbeaten in an MLS-record 20 consecutive
games across all competitions in 2016.
Rafael Navarro converted from the penalty spot in the 45th minute, scored again
in the 53rd and added two assists for St. Louis (14-6-8). Lukas MacNaughton
scored on a diving header in the seventh minute of first-half stoppage time and
Roman Brki had five saves.
Holse opened the scoring in the second minute, added a goal in the seventh and
skipped a shot inside the right post from the center of the area to make it 3-0
in the 21st minute to record the second-fastest hat trick in MLS history. Hany
Mukhtar scored three goals for Nashville in the first 16 minutes of 5-1 win
over Chicago on July 17, 2021.
LA's Kyogo Furuhashi went off due to an apparent hamstring injury and was
replaced in the 10th minute by Joao Klauss, whose goal in the 71st minute
capped the scoring. Klauss, a 29-year-old midfielder in his first season with
the Galaxy, had St. Louis City's first hat trick in a 3-3 tie with the Galaxy
on June 14, 2025.
Robert Taylor scored in the 31st minute for the Galaxy (9-11-9).
St. Louis beat the Galaxy 3-1 on July 22 at Dignity Health Sports Park.
Up next LA: Host Portland on Wednesday. St. Louis: Host Vancouver on Wednesday. ___ See AP's full MLS coverage here |
