LA Galaxy stars disappointed with defeat

The Los Angeles Galaxy players were disappointed after the defeat to Houston Dynamo on Saturday.

Houston Dynamo won the match 3-0 and the Galaxy is now out of the running for the 2008 MLS Cup Playoffs.

“It’s disappointing,” Galaxy midfielder Eddie Lewis said. “We put a lot into the season and wanted to give ourselves a chance going into the last game.

“At least since I’ve been here, it seems like in every game within 15 minutes, the other team has two or three or four chances.”Whether the other team scores or not is different every game, but the amount of chances that we allow early on in games, is almost suicidal.”

“It’s tough,” said star striker Landon Donovan. “We were hopeful that we would have been more competitive tonight, under the circumstances, but things didn’t go our way. We didn’t compete well in the first part of the game. In the second half of the game, we needed to have some bounces go our way that didn’t go our way, and that was it.”
