LAFC’s road winless streak stretches to seven with scoreless draw vs. Philadelphia
CHESTER, Pa. — Maxime Crépeau earned his second clean sheet in three days as LAFC and the Philadelphia Union played to a scoreless draw on Saturday night.

Billy Sharp had his first career hat trick and Diego Fagúndez scored the winner as the Galaxy rallied to beat Minnesota United 4-3 on Wednesday.
Philadelphia (14-8-7) has never defeated LAFC in eight meetings, including a penalty-shootout loss in the 2022 MLS Cup final, though all three meetings in Philadelphia ended in draws. LAFC is the only MLS team the Union have played but never defeated.
LAFC will host Real Salt Lake on Oct. 1. Philadelphia will host FC Dallas on Wednesday.
