Fans brawl after MLS game between San Diego FC, LA Galaxy

There’s no love lost when it comes to a game featuring sports teams (and fans) representing Los Angeles and San Diego.

San Diego FC and the LA Galaxy released a statement following their game on Saturday evening regarding an incident between fans at Snapdragon Stadium.

Fans were seen fighting in a video on social media in the upper deck level of the stadium during the game.

“San Diego FC and the LA Galaxy are united in our efforts to foster a safe and welcoming environment for all fans attending our matches,” the statement read. “The incidents that occurred following Saturday’s match at Snapdragon Stadium do not reflect the values of either club and are entirely unacceptable.”

Both clubs are working with the stadium security, Major League Soccer and local law enforcement to review the incidents.

“Any behavior found to be in violation of the MLS Fan Code of Conduct will result in disciplinary action, which may include stadium ejections and bans.”

Has there ever been a fan brawl incident at Snapdragon Stadium before?

There was a similar incident involving fans at Snapdragon Stadium on March 29. 

A series of videos were posted on social media showing fans of opposing teams fighting after San Diego FC’s 3-2 victory over LAFC, according to The Athletic. A similar statement was released by the MLS and SDFC.
