LAFC was defeated by Austin FC 1-0 at home on Saturday, March 15, 2025. The poor gameplay by both teams made it difficult to focus my coverage on the play of the Mexican-American players on either side, LAFC’s Mark Delgado and Austin FC’s Brandon Vazquez. I take this opportunity to inform you about each of these exemplary players of our community.

On Tuesday February 11th, 2025, I drove north on Figueroa Street towards BMO Stadium in downtown Los Angeles to cover Los Angeles Football Club versus Club America, the reigning threepeat champions of Mexico’s Liga BBVA MX league. The Mexican champions brought out thousands of their local fans causing heavy traffic; drivers abruptly forced their way into the only Martin Luther King Boulevard lane into the stadium. Local vendors smiled ingratiating themselves to potential customers, including the ubiquitous hot dog vendors, some accompanied by their young children.

On Saturday December 2nd, 2023 LAFC defeated Houston Dynamo by a score of 2-0 at BMO Stadium in downtown Los Angeles, California. LAFC appeared to be in control most of the game because they consistently created the more promising scoring opportunities despite Houston Dynamo retaining ball possession for significantly longer time. LAFC was led by Carlos Vela and his friend and previous teammate from the Mexican National team Hector Herrera led the Houston Dynamo. This might have been Carlos Vela’s last game at BMO Stadium as a player for LAFC.
