LA Galaxy 1, Real Salt Lake 0
Q. Back-to-back shutouts for the first time since 2022. This team seems to be finding itself on defense. What did you see from the game and the performance this week?
MAYA YOSHIDA: First of all, the performance of this week is very solid, and very good team work. We do what we need to do, so very happy for that. And of course, as a defender, a clean sheet is always feeling good. Even we have many games, a clean sheet makes me feel much better, so very happy for that. To be honest, the game was tough. We fight, very dry. Place is very high land. You know, it's really difficult. But it was a challenge for us to get three wins in a row. We made it the first time, so very happy for ourselves and very happy for Greg, as well. Yeah, we have a small, short break and ready for next important games for Clásico and Trafico.
Q. I wanted to ask about the control of the tempo of this match. Sometimes last year and earlier this year there were difficulties with games being too open. What is it you guys are doing that allows to you have control of these matches?
We are not try to pressing high today. Instead we make compactness, compact and let them have the ball a little bit. When we get the ball, of course, if it's good opportunity, we try to make contact but otherwise we try to position the ball; and exactly what we've done before the goal -- we try and regain the ball and control the game and dominated.
So very happy for what we have done. As Coach said and as Coach said, we just obey what Coach say today. This is very good structure for the squad.
