Los Angeles Galaxy's season opener against LAFC has been cancelled due to rain, with Major League Soccer forced into the decision after consulting local officials in Los Angeles.
Galaxy were meant to face off against LAFC at the Rose Bowl in California in a game meant to break the MLS attendance record. However, an unprecedented downpour has forced the game to be suspended until a later date.
Los Angeles has been hit with an unprecedented period of weather over the past few days, and due to security measures at the 89,000-capacity Rose Bowl, the league says it was left with no choice but to postpone.
