Steven Gerrards's hopes of lifting a championship trophy have been cruelly dashed once again after he saw LA Galaxy eliminated from the MLS play-off's last night.
The former Liverpool captain and current Ireland captain Robbie Keane can enjoy a nice, long winter break after the 2014 champions slumped to a 3-2 loss in the MLS Cup Play-off's knock-out game.
The match was not an advertisement for defending as four of the game's five goals were scored in the opening 22 minutes, with Clint Dempsey grabbing the opener for Seattle

Galaxy didn't heed the warning of the first goal, and despite getting back level at 1-1, thanks to a strike from Sebastian Lletget they went behind again.

LA did get it back to 2-2 at half time, until the defending champions realised, too late, that punting a ball up into the air in your own penalty box is a very bad idea. Erik Friberg slotted home the winner.
