CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy's draw with the Philadelphia Union saw them stand relatively pat in the three prominent MLS power rankings. 


The Galaxy remained at the top for Sports Illustrated's list and were placed in second in both ESPN FC and MLSoccer.com's rankings. 


The rankings are below:


SI.com: 1st

"Goalkeeper Dan Kennedy and central defender Leonardo both returned from injury to start and play the full 90 minutes. That’s normally a positive, but both made mistakes that led to Philadelphia’s goals in a 2-2 midweek draw. Luckily, LA’s attack was clicking, with Robbie Rogers and Mike Magee each finishing well-worked team goals."


ESPN FC: 2nd

"The Galaxy were outplayed overall on Wednesday against the Union, but the flashes of irresistible team play they showed on both of their goals show why they can still get points."


MLSsoccer.com: 2nd

"Went cross-country on short rest to score two gorgeous goals then hold on for dear life. Job well done ahead of their Heineken Rivalry Week match-up against San Jose."
