Greg Vanney offered no excuses after his underperforming LA Galaxy team capitulated in a 7-0 loss to the New York Red Bulls.

A rematch of last season's MLS Cup final saw the Red Bulls gain revenge as they cruised to an emphatic victory.

Eric Choupo-Moting grabbed a double, while Emil Forsberg scored twice and provided two assists, with Cameron Harper and Dennis Gjengaar also on target for the Red Bulls, who benefitted from Miki Yamane's own goal as well.

The Galaxy have just three points, the lowest tally in MLS this season, having failed to win any of their 12 matches in 2025.

They are the first team in MLS history to have as few as three points after 12 games of a campaign.

"I don’t know if it's an effort issue. When you give up goals like that, it's confidence and uncertainty," said a dejected Vanney. "We were a bit reactive, and we needed to be proactive.

"This is a team that puts you in those situations – they're not hesitating. They created uncertainty and that led to some indecision, some uncomfortable positions.

"We were just not connected, and when you're not connected against a Red Bulls team, it's going to be a problem.

"This is a horrible night. On rare occasions over the course of a season, you have an absolute s****** and, tonight, we did. But we've competed in every other game, the margin has been one goal mostly.

"I'm not excusing it. Today, it got away from us, and that's something we have to address and address quickly."

Galaxy had their chances even in their heavy defeat, creating opportunities worth a respectable 2.03 expected goals.

Yet, the Red Bulls were ruthless, outperforming their 3.24 xG as they won a fifth home game in the space of seven such matches.

Indeed, the Red Bulls set a club record for goals scored in a home game.

"It's a good feeling, of course, to have this performance," coach Sandro Schwarz said. "It's not only the result – it's the quality, the intensity with which we played."
