I’m starting to think we didn’t need to be worried about Son not scoring the goals for #LAFC
Choiniere learned that precision in Switzerland.
We keep saying that if Martinez gives LAFC a third ‘prong’ to the attack, they may be unstoppable. Well, he just smoked Mexico’s breakout player in the March window and beat a great GK to make it 2-0. La Máquina need the break at this point, despite dominating the opening portion.

David Martínez: Rising Venezuela star finds his place with LAFC

LAFC have fantastic food available to players at their training facility. David Martínez can attest to it. He is glad for it. Because while Martínez is good at many things, he cannot cook.

Goooooool David Martinez again. Cruz Azul got caught with Palavecino & Jeremy Marquez trying to bump Martinez off the ball after that pass from Son, and it just wasn't going to happen. Bouanga took some of the attention, but how is no one else there? LAFC with a 3-0 lead on the reigning champs.
As good as it gets for LAFC, winning the first leg 3-0 over Cruz Azul. It’s a nice advantage to take to Puebla, where things will be more difficult, but where they’ll feel they can play a style that suits them to get into the CCC semifinal.
