LAFC away is next
Thursday, October 15 at LAFC, 04:30 CEST. Then Vancouver Whitecaps visit Q2 Stadium on Sunday, October 18, before you head to Sporting Kansas City on Sunday, October 25.
Your last road trip was the 1–2 win at Vancouver on September 14. Since then: 0–0 at FC Dallas, 3–3 at home to San Diego FC, and now this.
Fan reactions
The mood swung hard after the final whistle. One thread calls it flat out: "We're Crap" (2), frustration with how the club is run boiling over. Others found something to hold onto: a fan thanked the capo in the supporters' section for keeping the chants going all night and making a first timer's matchday worth it (3). The halftime show got dragged too, with one poster calling it "cringe" (4). One question is still hanging: why Rosales is suspended, with no clarity on whether it is a red, yellow accumulation or something else (1).
