A game that unfortunately played out as we expected in one of the worst ways. San Diego largely dominated St. Louis CITY SC and finished a couple critical chances to make the difference. CITY was without their DP Marcel Hartel (upcoming birth of child). We analyze everything that went wrong, what CITY needs to do to correct them and still manage to highlight a few positive outcomes to build upon.
