Danny Muscovski scores in each half, teen Snyder Brunell scores in debut as Sounders rout Galaxy 4-0
CARSON, Calif. (AP) — Danny Muscovski scored a goal in each half and 18-year-old Snyder Brunell scored in his league debut as the Seattle Sounders cruised to a 4-0 victory over the Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday night. Seattle grabbed the lead in the 25th minute on an own goal by defender Julián Aude. The Sounders took a 2-0 lead in the 37th minute on Muscovski's unassisted goal. He made it 3-0 in the 54th minute with another unassisted goal. Muscovski has already scored a career-high eight times this season. He had five netters with Los Angeles FC as a rookie in 2020 and five for Real Salt Lake in 2023. Brunell subbed in for Jesús Ferreira in the 73rd minute and scored in the 85th. Defender Álex Roldán notched his third assist of the season and the fourth of his career. Rookie Kalani Kossa-Rienzi collected his third assist. Andrew Thomas finished with three saves for his first clean sheet in his seventh start of the season for Seattle. He had two shutouts in five starts last season. Novak Micovic saved five shots for Los Angeles. He had three saves and Thomas wasn't tested in the first half. Seattle is unbeaten in its last seven league matches at 4-0-3 and is on a 10-match unbeaten streak across all competitions after winning all three matches in Phase One of the Leagues Cup to advance. The last time the two clubs squared off was in last season's Western Conference championship match — a 1-0 victory at home for the Galaxy on a goal in the 85th minute by Dejan Joveljić, who now plays for Sporting Kansas City. Seattle leads the all-time series 15-11-14 in league play and 21-18-14 across all competitions. The Sounders travel to play Minnesota United on Saturday. The Galaxy head to Florida to play Inter Miami on Saturday. ___ AP soccer:

LA Galaxy vs Austin FC: MLS cellar dwellers clash in crucial match
THE Los Angeles Galaxy and Austin FC face off in a pivotal MLS encounter as both teams look to climb out of the Western Conference basement. The Galaxy, despite recent improvements, remain at the bottom of the table, while Austin FC struggles to find goals. Austin FC has scored a league-low 15 goals in 21 matches this season, making them one of the least threatening attacking sides in MLS. Their latest outing saw them held to a goalless draw by New England Revolution, with head coach Nico Estevez frustrated by missed chances. 'It's a game that if you play 10 times, nine you win,' Estevez said. 'We are unlucky.' Meanwhile, the Galaxy have shown signs of life after a historically poor start. Their 2-1 victory over D.C. United marked their second straight win, a first this season. Marco Reus and Diego Fagundez were on target, with goalkeeper Novak Micovic making crucial saves. Head coach Greg Vanney praised his team's growing confidence. 'The guys are confident as we're starting to see games out,' he said. Despite their recent upturn, the Galaxy still share the league's worst record with CF Montreal, highlighting the scale of their early-season struggles. Reus has been instrumental in their revival, leading the team with five goals and seven assists. The two sides met earlier this season, with Austin securing a narrow 1-0 win at home. The Galaxy hold a slight edge in the all-time series (5-3-1), but Wednesday's clash could prove decisive in shaping their playoff hopes. - Reuters

Even over the Fourth of July weekend, ICE officials didn't stop their raids in LA: ‘Troubling reminder of federal overreach'
Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained several people in the Los Angeles area on Independence Day. The agency has detained more than 1,600 people in the region in recent months, according to the Los Angeles Times. Among those arrested on the Fourth of July were two car wash workers who had been employed there for decades and a beloved food vendor who runs a birria stand, the outlet reports. A man whose father was detained, who asked to remain anonymous, told NBC 4 LA that he was unsure what prompted the raids. 'He's not a criminal,' he said. 'He wasn't doing anything he wasn't supposed to. He came in to work on the Fourth of July.' West Hollywood officials were also critical. 'On a day meant to honor the ideals of liberty, democracy, and freedom from oppression, we instead confront a deeply troubling reminder of federal overreach. Independence Day should be a time for reflection and reverence, not fear and persecution,'' they said in a statement on the city website. Anti-ICE protests also continued on the holiday. The Los Angeles Police Department arrested five people in connection with downtown demonstrations, the Los Angeles Times reports. Fans of the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team walked out of the stadium on Friday in protest against the owners' lack of public support for immigrants. Fans also held up a banner that read: 'Fight Ignorance, Not Immigrants.' Earlier in the week, ICE raided three Los Angeles-area Home Depots and arrested a total of 37 people, KTLA reports. President Donald Trump also signed his sweeping spending and tax bill into law on Independence Day while attending a picnic for military families. That bill will provide ICE with roughly $45 billion over the next four years to spend on detaining undocumented immigrants. This comes as part of Trump's promise to carry out the 'largest deportation program in American history.' The new funds make ICE the 'single largest federal law enforcement agency in the history of the nation,' Aaron Reichlin-Melnick of the American Immigration Council told Democracy Now!. 'We're talking nearly 20 years' worth of detention funding to be spent only in a four-year period, and an increase to ICE's enforcement budget beyond anything we've ever seen before, allowing the agency to expand mass deportations over the next four years to every community nationwide,' he said. Trump has also praised a new ICE detention center in Florida, dubbed 'Alligator Alcatraz.' The president visited the site on Tuesday, saying it will soon house 'some of the most menacing migrants, some of the most vicious people on the planet.'
