Denis Bouanga’s stoppage-time goal is the only positive for LAFC on a night when the MLS champs are badly outplayed in a 2-1 road loss. The second leg is Sunday night in Los Angeles.
Club León came out aggressive, pounced on LAFC miscues and took the opening leg of their CONCACAF Champions League final, 2-1, on Wednesday night in front of 20,517 at Estadio León in León, Mexico.
LAFC has spent weeks navigating a busy schedule filled with MLS matches and the U.S. Open Cup, while León had not played since May 7, but the hosts showed no signs of rust and gave their supporters something to cheer early. William Tesillo scored on a header off a corner kick just eight minutes into the match and León kept the pressure on throughout. The hosts recorded 28 touches in LAFC’s box in the first half, which is the most the team has ever allowed in any half.
