Big day.
United will look to extend its five game unbeaten streak (4-0-1) against the Western Conference's best team today as the Black-and-Red take on the LA Galaxy in a rare noon kickoff. Today's game will be broadcast nationally on ABC and is the warm-up for the Euro 2008 final between Germany and Spain.
Tickets are still available and will not sell out. So, get out to RFK Stadium. In fact, leave now - I guarantee there are folks already tailgating.
