Son Heung-min leads LAFC to 3-1 victory over Austin FC
Los Angeles FC secured a 3-1 victory over Austin FC at BMO Stadium, driven by a standout performance from Son Heung-min. Son recorded one goal and two assists during the match, helping LAFC break a four-game winless streak.
Denis Bouanga scored twice, including the goal that reclaimed the lead for LAFC in the 67th minute. Both of Bouanga’s goals were assisted by Son. Austin FC managed a temporary equalizer through Brandon Vázquez in the 66th minute, but the lead lasted only one minute.
Son’s goal in the 72nd minute, assisted by Bouanga, finalized the score. With his two assists, Son moved into sole possession of first place for league assists with 15. This performance follows a strong international period for the South Korean forward, who recently became his national team’s all-time leading scorer.
