"Son Heung-min, who scored a hat-trick when the two sides met during the week, assisted Bouanga's equaliser in the first minute of additional time before putting LAFC ahead two minutes later with a long-range effort. RSL pushed for an equaliser, and went close twice, but they were punished in the 73rd minute when a quick passage of play saw Bouanga through on goal and the forward coolly lobbed the goalkeeper."
"Diego Rubio put Austin ahead at the Q2 stadium three minutes before the break, but Georgi Minoungou equalised within 60 seconds of coming on as a half-time substitute. Seattle, who produced 2.26 expected goals (xG) to Austin's 1.63, went close to taking the lead through Jordan Morris and Snyder Brunell, but Myrto Uzuni managed to score at the death to take all three points."
Denis Bouanga scored a hat-trick as LAFC defeated Real Salt Lake 4-1 after RSL took an early lead through Brayan Vera.
