The Sounders' season ended one game away from the MLS Cup after they allowed a goal to the Galaxy in the 85th minute of the Western Conference final.

Seeking their first MLS Cup berth in 10 years, things did not come so easily against the Seattle Sounders. It took more than 85 minutes for the Galaxy to unlock Seattle’s organized approach, but Dejan Joveljic got on the end of a pass from Riqui Puig and beat Sounders goalkeeper Stefan Frei to lift the Galaxy to a 1-0 win.

Dejan Joveljic scored his fifth goal of the playoffs in the 86th minute and the LA Galaxy advanced to the MLS Cup final for the first time since 2014 with a 1-0 victory over the Seattle Sounders in the Western Conference final.

The LA Galaxy made headlines leading up to Saturday’s Western Conference Final with their 15 scores — two shy of an MLS playoff record — during their postseason run. For 84 minutes against Seattle’s league-leading defense, the Galaxy couldn’t muster a threatening attempt.

After a run of four MLS Cup appearances in five years, the all-conquering Sounders are ready for another title tilt.
