Three matches on for the midweek, with the first in...

Montreal, as the Impact host the Los Angeles Galaxy. Brian Rowe and Evan Bush are called on to start in goal. Montreal began in the twenty-eighth minute with a Marco Di Vaio goal, assisted by Dilly Duka and Ignacio Piatti. Los Angeles' Dan Gargan took a yellow card in the thirty-seventh minute for a foul. In the forty-third minute, Piatti added on for the Impact, with the help of Felipe Martins and Duka. The Galaxy took another foul in the forty-fourth minute for dissent by Landon Donovan. Piatti was booked on a yellow card in the fifty-third minute for a foul. Los Angeles got on the board in the fifty-ninth minute as Gyasi Zardes scored, thanks to Juninho. The Galaxy pulled level in the sixty-fourth minute as Alan Gordon scored, with the help of Robbie Keane and Donovan. Montreal took another yellow card for a Martins foul in the eightieth minute. The Impact saw the referee visit Calum Mallace in the eighty-seventh minute to give him a yellow card for a foul as well. The score stood at 2-2, with the man of the match being Piatti.

Down in New York, the Red Bulls welcome DC United. Bill Hamid and Luis Robles are in the six yard boxes. DC went down to ten men when Fabian Espindola was given a red card in the thirty-second minute for a serious foul. New York took a pair of yellow cards in the thirty-ninth minute for Armando making no impact on timing, and for Roy Miller's unsporting behavior. The Red Bulls escaped with a 1-0 win after a ninetieth minute goal by Lloyd Sam, via Thierry Henry and Jamison Olave. The man of the match was Sam for his timely goal.

Finally, out west, the Vancouver Whitecaps FC bring in the San Jose Earthquakes. Jon Busch and David Ousted are the reliable goalies. Vancouver struck first in the thirty-ninth minute as Pedro Morales converted a penalty kick. San Jose's Jordan Stewart was given a yellow card in the forty-sixth minute for a foul. The Whitecaps added on in the fifty-sixth minute with a Kendall Watson goal, via Morales. Vancouver's Sebastian Fernandez was given a yellow card in the fifty-ninth minute for persistent infringement. The score held at 2-0, with the man of the match being Morales.
