Match Recap

Leo Walta struck right on the stroke of halftime, deep into injury time at 45+1, giving Los Angeles FC an early lead at New York City FC. Andrés Perea answered for the hosts in the 59th minute, dragging a point back for NYC FC in a Major League Soccer draw that finished 1-1. Neither side arrives in good shape: New York City FC sit 10th with 33 points on the back of a LLDLW run, while Los Angeles FC, sixth on 45 points, have cooled off with a WDLDL stretch of their own, just one win apiece in their last five. A share of the spoils does little to change either side's trajectory, and both benches will have left MetLife Stadium unsatisfied. Catch Walta's injury-time finish and Perea's equalizer, two goals that settled nothing and left New York City FC and Los Angeles FC right back where they started.
