Here on Episode 317, we are back in action at BMO, and it's more Leagues Cup action. This time, we take on a very, very familiar foe as of late, the Vancouver Whitecaps. And boy oh boy was it a roller coaster ride!LAFC simply looked awful to start the match. Down 2-0 after 20 minutes, and playing rather uninspired football, the supporters at BMO were looking for any signs of life on the pitch; the 3252 was providing all the necessary energy off of it. Cue the dramatics! LAFC would make

Episode 316 - Xolos Provides Little Resistance

Defenders of the Banc - The LAFC Podcast ·

2024/07/27

On Episode 316, we pose the following question: Can LAFC win 3-0 AND underwhelm offensively? Xolos provides little resistance in our Leagues Cup opener as Denis Bouanga continues to put up video game numbers. Goals in both the first 10 minutes and the last few minutes of the half helped LAFC put a stranglehold on the match early, and Kike Olivera's goal just after halftime sealed the deal. LAFC takes all three points and gets set to take on Vancouver on Tuesday. Also on this episode, we wave

Episode 314 - Still Sluggish in 1-1 Draw vs. RSL

Defenders of the Banc - The LAFC Podcast ·

2024/07/19

Episode 314 is here, but it's another sluggish performance for LAFC. A player returns, a player gets hurt, and opportunities are missed at home in our clash with RSL. Things started out great at BMO, with Steven Beitashour leading the falcon flight as Kike Olivera was gifted an early goal from Zac MacMath. But just minutes later, Timothy Tillman goes down with a hamstring injury, and the Black and Gold did not look the same. A fluke goal off a set piece leveled things for RSL before halftime,

It's Episode 313, and it was an absolute beatdown. The defending champs, Columbus Crew, came into BMO and delivered haymaker after haymaker, destroying LAFC, 5-1, delivering the worst home loss in our club's history.

In addition to giving up four second-half goals, LAFC also saw their numbers reduced to 9, with Sergi Palencia and Jesus Murillo both shown red.
