Pec has 2 goals, Yoshida scores in stoppage time for Galaxy in 3-3 tie with LAFC
LOS ANGELES -- Gabriel Pec scored two goals and Maya Yoshida added a goal in the seventh minute of stoppage time for the LA Galaxy in a 3-3 tie with Los Angeles FC on Saturday night. Eddie Segura was shown a straight red card (violent conduct) in the first minute of stoppage time and LAFC played a man down the rest of the way. LAFC (10-5-7) has its string of three consecutive wins — all shutouts by goalkeeper Hugo Lloris — snapped. Yoshida flicked in a header, off an arcing ball-in played by defender Mauricio Cuevas, from the center of the area to cap the scoring. Denis Bouanga scored twice for LAFC. Bouanga has scored at least one goal in four consecutive games and has seven goal contributions (five goals, two assists) during that span. Pec converted from the penalty spot in the 36th minute and added a goal in the 79th — finishing off a string of quick crisp passes with a first-touch shot from the right-center of the area — for the Galaxy (3-14-7). The 24-year-old Pec, who had 30 goal contributions (16 goals, 14 assists) as an MLS rookie last season, has five goals and three assists this season. The Galaxy is 8-7-7 against LAFC all time in the regular season. Bouanga opened the scoring in the 22nd minute, his sixth consecutive game against the Galaxy with a goal. Bouanga perfectly timed his run onto a well-placed ball-ahead played by Ryan Hollingshead a blasted a first-touch shot into the net. Javairo Dilrosun stopped a low cross played from the left side by Nate Ordaz and then flicked in the finish from the right corner of the 6-yard box to give LAFC a 2-0 lead in the 31st. On a breakaway, Bouanga outraced the defense and then beat goalkeeper Novak Micovic, who crept off his line, with a rolling shot from near the penalty spot to make it 3-1 in the 67th. The Galaxy, the defending MLS Cup champions, lost 2-1 at home against Austin on Wednesday to snap their season-long three-game unbeaten streak.

Screen time comes with a cost: What you need to know about ‘tech neck'
NEW YORK, June 25: As screen time continues to climb, so do the physical consequences. A recent survey by reveals that the average American now spends over 12 hours a day on screens — leading health experts to raise red flags about a condition known as "tech neck." Dr. Jeremy Smith, chief of spine surgery at Hoag Orthopedic Institute in Irvine, California, describes tech neck as pain and stiffness in the neck and shoulders caused by prolonged poor posture while using digital devices. 'Your head weighs about 12 to 20 pounds—roughly the size of a bowling ball,' he said. 'Holding it in a forward position for long periods puts stress on the neck muscles, which respond with pain.' The culprit is simple: bad posture. 'Most commonly, tech neck is seen in people working long hours at a computer,' said Jessica Lefkowitz, a doctor of physical therapy at Bespoke Physical Therapy in New York City. 'People tend to lean toward their screens and round their shoulders, which causes tightness in the chest and upper back.' Slouching on the couch while scrolling through a phone is another major contributor, she added. Symptoms often include neck and shoulder pain, stiffness, and even headaches, said Dr. Peter Whang, a spine surgeon at Yale School of Medicine. In more severe cases, discomfort may extend down the arms. 'If your neck hurts after working at a screen all day and you notice poor posture, you might be dealing with tech neck,' Lefkowitz noted. She suggests recording a side-view video of your work posture to identify issues and track improvement. But if neurological symptoms like tingling, numbness, or burning sensations develop, experts urge seeking medical advice immediately. One key step is reducing screen time where possible. For those who must remain in front of screens for extended periods, Dr. Whang emphasizes the importance of proper posture and eye-level screen placement. Lefkowitz advises setting a timer to check your posture every 30 minutes and pairing that with mobility exercises, such as: Chin nods: Nod your head "yes" 10 times.n Neck rotations: Turn your head left and right 10 times.n Side bends: Bring your ear toward your shoulder on each side 10 times.n Dr. Smith also recommends raising your phone to eye level instead of looking down at your lap. 'Instead of looking at your belly button, hold your device up and give your neck a break,' he advised. Lefkowitz offers the following stretches to help manage tech neck symptoms, advising caution for anyone uncertain about their suitability: Cervical Flexion/Extension: Sit upright. Tuck your chin to your chest, then tilt your head back. Repeat 10 times, three to five times a day.n Cervical Rotation: Turn your head to each side as far as comfortable. Repeat 10 times, three to five times a day.n Cervical Side Bend: Touch your ear to your shoulder, alternating sides. Repeat 10 times, three to five times a day.n Doorway Pec Stretch: Place your arms in a goalpost shape on a doorframe and step forward to stretch your chest. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat three times.n Prone Swimmers: Lie on your stomach with your forehead on a towel. Move your arms from a low-back "handcuffed" position to an overhead dive position.n While these stretches can help ease discomfort, experts caution that persistent or worsening symptoms should be assessed by a healthcare professional. With screen use unlikely to decrease anytime soon, awareness and proactive self-care may be the best defense against tech neck and its growing toll on digital-era posture.
