LA FC, led by head coach Steve Cherundolo, will play an away game against Austin in the 2025 Major League Soccer (MLS) at Q2 Stadium in Austin, Texas on the 13th (Korea time).
LA FC has won six consecutive games recently. Starting with the Senorje match (4-2 wins) on September 14, the team secured a victory over Salt Lake (4-1 wins), Salt Lake (4-1 wins), St. Louis (3-0 wins), Atlanta (1-0 wins), and Toronto (2-0 wins).
Son Heung-min's performance was at the center of the winning streak. Son Heung-min, who joined LA FC in August, led the team with LA FC 'Attack Captain'. Son scored one goal against Dallas (1-1 draw) on Aug. 25. After preheating, Son Heung-min scored one goal against San Jose and scored a hat trick (three goals in one game) against Salt Lake. In the subsequent return match against Salt Lake, he also scored one goal and two goals against St. Louis. Since his MLS debut, he has scored eight goals in nine games.
Son's presence also affected his teammates. He showed off his dney bouanga and fierce toes. Son Heung-min and Buanga are currently considered the best offensive duo in MLS. In fact, he scored 18 goals from the game against Dallas to Atlanta.
The problem is the absence of two people. Son Heung-min and Buanga were away during the A-match in October. In the meantime, LA FC will play two games. Fortunately, he beat Toronto 2-0 in his first match on the 9th. This time it's Austin. In the match against Austin, LA FC's Jeremy Ebovise will be the one-top. Timothy Tillman, Mark Delgado and Andrew Moran are located on the second line. Zaiusong and Eddie Segura will play as defensive midfielders. The defense is handled by Ryan Hollingshead, Nkosi Tapari, Ryan Portiers and Sergi Palencia. The goal is defended by Hugo Lloris.
