LA Galaxy's hopes of winning the Major League Soccer Cup were dashed by Los Angeles FC in a thrilling 5-3 Western Conference semi-final loss.
On October 25, 2019, the 38-year-old Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored in what could be his final MLS game, but it was not enough to save his team from elimination.
Los Angeles FC's Carlos Vela scored twice in the first half, taking his season's tally to 36, and his team's victory marked the first time they had beaten Galaxy in the MLS.
The rivalry between the two teams is nicknamed 'El Trafico' due to California's notorious traffic congestion.
As Ibrahimovic left the field, he appeared to grab his crotch in response to heckling from fans.
LA Galaxy will now focus on rebuilding for the next season, while Los Angeles FC will face Seattle Sounders in the next round of the playoffs.
