What happened: The strike came against the club that loaned Lozano to Los Angeles on Aug. 7. A would-be equalizer six minutes later was disallowed for a foul, and the hosts restored their two-goal margin in the 70th minute.
Why it matters: The defeat left Los Angeles at 26 points, four behind San Diego in the Western Conference playoff race. Lozano completed 90 minutes in his second start for the club.
By the numbers: Los Angeles put eight of 17 shots on target; San Diego put six of 19 on frame. Each side took seven corners.
What to watch: Los Angeles returns home Sept. 5 for its next match.
