The Galaxy's lack of a natural left-back also proved costly as they struggled to cope with Tigres' pacey attacks. Coach Vanney will need to address this issue if his side is to improve its defensive solidity.

What's Next for the LA Galaxy?

The defeat marks the end of the Galaxy's Concacaf Champions Cup campaign, and while they may have not been expected to win the tournament, the early exit will be a disappointment for fans. The Galaxy will now focus on regrouping and preparing for their MLS schedule.

The club's priority will be to strengthen its squad during the transfer window and improve its overall depth. With several key players entering the twilight of their careers, it's essential that Vanney has sufficient options to choose from.

Despite their exit from the Concacaf Champions Cup, the LA Galaxy can take heart in the progress they've made under Vanney. However, to truly become a force to be reckoned with, the team needs to strengthen its defensive solidity and develop more cohesion up front.

The Galaxy's focus will now shift to making a strong push for an MLS Cup title, which would be a fitting way to cap off a successful season.
