Player Ratings – LAFC fall to the Houston Dynamo

LAFC fell to the Houston Dynamo 1-0 in a midweek fixture. It was a fairly lackluster performance from the home side, that left lot more questions to be asked about a team who has now gone winless in 6 games, all competitions.

Player Ratings:

Starting 11

McCarthy: 5/10 almost gave up a goal when he was dispossessed in his own box. Was unlucky to give up a goal on the dynamo goal because he made a decent save.

Maldonado: 4/10 – Didn’t have many positive influences on the game and got beat easily on the endline resulting in a dangerous chance.

Murillo: 5/10 –Had some good tackles in the back but that’s about it.

Chiellini: 5/10 – Was vulnerable on the counter but had some decent distribution.

Hollingshead:6/10 Had a crucial tackle on a counter that likely prevented a goal.

Ilie 4/10 – Didn’t pull the strings in the midfield like he normally does and got himself booked.

Palacios: 7/10 – Showed energy and skill on the left side.

Duenas: 5/10 – Had no notable involvements.

Bogusz: 5/10 Had a horrendous free kick in the first half. Served up a nice ball to vela, but ultimately more was needed from him in attack.

Vela: 4/10 – Questionable decision making at times and struggled to influence the game.

Biuk: 6/10 – Bright spot for LAFC in the first half and had some good sequences down the left, but disappeared in the second half.

SUBS

Opoku: 2/10 – Lost control and got himself a red card with a two footed challenge.

Crisostomo: 5/10 – Didn’t even notice he was subbed in. Could be a good thing?

Long: 6/10 – Provided some stability to the LAFC backline

Ordaz: N/A
