Denis Bouanga and Son Heung-min propel LAFC to 3-1 victory over Austin
LOS ANGELES (AP) --- Denis Bouanga and Son Heung-min both contributed to all
three goals for Los Angeles FC in a 3-1 victory over Austin FC on Wednesday
night.
Neither team found the net until Bouanga took a pass from Son seven minutes
into the second half and scored to give LAFC (12-9-9) the lead.
Brandon Vzquez scored for the second time this season --- using an assist from
Myrto Uzuni to knot the score in the 66th minute.
Bouanga answered the following minute with his 17th netter off another assist
from Son --- his league-leading 15th of the season --- and LAFC went back in
front 2-1.
Bouanga returned the favor when he notched his eighth assist on Son's goal ---
his sixth --- in the 72nd minute for a two-score advantage. Bouanga's assist
was his eighth and Jacob Shaffelburg picked up his career-high fifth.
Hugo Lloris totaled three saves for Los Angeles, now 2-2-3 since the start of
September.
Brad Stuver stopped 10 shots --- one off his career high --- for Austin
(7-11-11), which has lost two straight following an eight-match unbeaten streak.
LAFC improves to 9-3-3 at home, while Austin drops to 3-8-4 on the road.
The two clubs played to a scoreless draw in Austin to close out March.
