Episode 267 - Vela Nets Another; LAFC Still Winless in Minnesota

Send us a textAs the All-Star Break looms, LAFC heads north to take on the Loons. Playing their 33rd match of the season (that's a record), the Black and Gold's affair with Minnesota is our focal point for Episode 267. The first half belonged to Emmanuel Reynoso, Minnesota's talented talisman. Despite plenty of opportunities, the home side was still scoreless after 20 minutes. Carlos Vela's beautiful run, freed by a great ball from Stipe Biuk, put LAFC up for a whole three minutes before exquisite passing from Minnesota found Reynoso for the equalizer. From there on out, other than a couple of solid saves from J-Mac and near misses by Hlongwane and Hollingshead, the second half played out without too much drama. Both sides split a point as we head to the break. Also on this episode, Mahala opens his account in Montreal, LAFC receives money from FIFA, and the GOAT is pink. Yes, silly season is about to be upon us, as Lionel Messi joins the ranks of the 29th place club in MLS, Inter Miami. Here. We. Go. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
