Son Heung-min's home debut for LAFC ended in regret. |
LAFC started the match with great enthusiasm, cheered by tens of thousands of spectators, and opened the scoring early in the 15th minute thanks to a classy volley from Denis Bouanga. However, the advantage did not last long.
Hirving Lozano equalized in the 33rd minute with a decisive shot down the middle, then celebrated enthusiastically in front of the North End. In the second half, Anders Dreyer became the hero for San Diego with a spectacular solo performance, beating two defenders before scoring to seal a 2-1 victory.
Son Heung-min was the highlight of the match. The Korean striker had 4 shots, including one that hit the post, 2 key-passes, 3 dribbles with an 81% pass accuracy.
The former Tottenham Hotspur star also had a long-range shot saved by goalkeeper CJ Dos Santos, and a chance in stoppage time was also denied. That effort showed that Son still had the desire to fight, despite the incomplete result.

After the match, Son could not hide his disappointment, even complaining to the referee. This moment quickly spread on social media, with many opinions defending him, emphasizing that the Asian star came to MLS not to "retire" but to continue to conquer.
While LAFC missed the chance to consolidate their position, San Diego extended their unbeaten streak to six games, asserting their new status as a challenger in the West.
