San Jose v. Galaxy gets my vote for MLS’ worst rivalry. It actually started in 1974 when San Jose Earthquakes and LA Aztecs use to do battle.

There’s a lot of animosity between us and the LA supporters. Thankfully it doesn’t go over the top.

I am a supporter of LA Galaxy and I appreciate the recognition of our local city and state derbies. Despite this, I have to mention the fact that this list neglects Atlas v. Chivas and America v. UNAM

I’ve been to new York vs. DC and that game is awesome in both places. It’s a battle in the stands as well as the field and the proximity of the two stadiums make it accesible for fans of either team.

there’s more chance of an east-west rivalry in US football than there is of a local derby.

Agreed, not sure any of the American games have got the tradition behind them as yet. They are all manufactured match ups!

Has to be Mexico: Club America vs Chivas. Hot chillies, cold beer and a cracking atmosphere!
