LAFC vs Club América

Angelic. That’s the best way to describe how LAFC looked last night. It was the first time we got to see their brand-new away kits in action, and they got the win against Club America too.

It’s never an easy task going up against Liga MX sides in Cali, but the [black] white-and-gold held their own at home. Bouanga shouldered the weight of the occasion, bagging a goal and participating in the sequence ahead of homegrown Nathan Ordaz’s eventual game-winner. It’ll be a huge confidence boost going into their Concacaf Champions Cup debut against the Colorado Rapids next Tuesday, and we’ll see if they’re able to keep up the pace.

Anyways, for all the kit enthusiasts out in LA, word on the street is that these pearly white jerseys will drop later tonight online, and in person at BMO Stadium. What a week it’s been so far for soccer fashion.
