LOS ANGELES — Saturday's MLS opener between the Galaxy and LAFC at the Rose Bowl has been postponed because of the possibility of heavy rains, flooding and lightning. A league official declined to comment publicly.
A makeup date has not been announced.
The game, the marquee matchup of league's first weekend, was expected to break the MLS single-game attendance record of 73,019. More than 70,000 tickets already had been distributed as of midweek.
