Venue Availability Necessitated Switch of Location

The United Soccer League announced that Saturday’s Western Conference Semifinal match between Orange County Blues FC and the LA Galaxy II has been moved to StubHub Center in Carson, CA. Due to availability issues with the Blues’ home venue of Anteater Stadium at UCI, the match was originally scheduled to be played at an alternate venue.

This change has been agreed to by all parties in order to provide the best possible conditions for both clubs and the fans.

The No. 1-seeded Blues are making their 2015 USL Playoffs debut, while the No. 5 Galaxy II advanced to the conference semis by virtue of a 1-0 victory in the quarterfinals against defending champion Sacramento Republic FC.
