LA Galaxy Own Goal

I’ve read a couple articles out in the blogosphere about the SuperLiga finals last night and several of them refer to an own goal by Peter Vagenas.  I noticed also that MLSnet.com’s box score shows the own goal credited to Vagenas.

I did actually watch the game and I was pretty sure is was not Vagenas who scored Pachuca’s only goal.  I never knew who it was due to watching the game on the Spanish channel.  It looked like it might have been Carlos Pavon but I’m not sure about that.  I do know that the scorer of the own goal looked nothing like Peter Vagenas.  Maybe it was Pavon, he might have just forgotten which goal he was going to.  It did look like one of those own goals where the defender was actually trying to score.

Did anyone see who it really was?  Or was I dreaming and it really was Vagenas?

Who Can Score Goals In LA?

Well besides Chivas USA and whoever the Galaxy are playing against, who can score goals in LA?  The Galaxy sure don’t do a good job of doing that, but their newest teammate hopes to change that and coach Yallop thinks he has got the guy to do it.

Carlos Pavon signed with the Galaxy today and will be available for the rest of the season.  The Honduras international striker recently struck 4 goals in a Gold Cup game vs Cuba which Honduras won 5-0.

Is Pavon going to be able to turn things around in LA?
