Feb. 27, 2008
The Los Angeles Galaxy announced Monday that it has added a game in Hong Kong to its Asian exhibition tour.
The Galaxy, and its famed midfielder David Beckham, will face the Hong Kong Union on March 9 at the 40,000-seat Hong Kong Stadium.
The tour will begin Saturday in Seoul, South Korea against FC Seoul. The second game will be played on March 5 in Shanghai, China against Shanghai-Hong Kong United.
All three games will be televised in the United States by the Fox Soccer Channel, the first and third live at 11:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. Pacific Standard Time. The game against Shanghai-Hong Kong United will be shown on a delayed basis at 8 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on March 5.
Foreign tours are among the ways the Galaxy hopes to meet its goal of generating 100 million dollars a year in revenues, which would put it among the top tier of teams around the world.

The Galaxy opened their stadium, the Home Depot Center on June 7. But in order for their home to be ready, the team had to play a record 8 games to start the season and failed to win a game. In fact, the Galaxy finish the season without a win away from home the whole season. After the season's final game, the Galaxy had the final playoff spot in the West. In their aggregate series with the Earthquakes, they seemed well on to vindication for the MLS Cup loss 2 years earlier as they held 4 goals to 0 lead midway through the 2 nd game. A thing happened as the Earthquakes scored four unanswered goals to force a tiebreaker. In that session, the Earthquakes' Rodrigo Farina score to send the Quakes onto the next round.
In 2004 Looking to return to the top, the Galaxy would go through a mediocre 1 st half of the season before 3 straight wins over the summer. But from July 14 on, the Galaxy won only 2 more games, one in September and one in October. The Galaxy had a record of 11-9-10, good enough for 2nd in the West and the playoff, remaining the only club in MLS to have a playoff spot in every year of league in the playoffs, the Galaxy withstood an early challenge from the Rapids to win the aggregate goal series, 2-1, scoring 2 times in Game 2. In the conference final, the Galaxy's season would come to an end in Kansas with a 2-0 loss to Arnaud and the Wizards.
