Galaxy lose to Crew following lengthy weather delay

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Galaxy did a lot of waiting on Wednesday night – first on the weather and then on their offense.

Gabriel Pec finally scored in the 86th minute, but that was all the visitors could muster in a 2-1 loss to the Columbus Crew in an MLS match that started more than two hours late because of weather.

Dániel Gazdag and Diego Rossi each scored for Columbus (2-4-3, 9 points), which has allowed just three goals in its first four home matches of the season.

Gazdag scored in the 41st minute when he redirected Hugo Picard’s cross with the outside of his foot.

Rossi, who went into the match with the third-most MLS regular-season goals among active players, doubled the lead in the 47th. Rossi started the sequence at midfield and he got the ball back from Max Arfsten at the penalty spot for a calm finish.

Pec put the Galaxy (2-4-3, 9 points) on the board late when he finished a pass from Joseph Paintsil.
