Late winner at home: LAFC 1–0 Atlanta United
On Sunday night, October 5, 2025, LAFC secured a hard-fought 1–0 victory over Atlanta United at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, in a regular-season MLS matchup.
The only goal of the game came in the 86th minute, when Denis Bouanga pounced on a rebound inside the box and volleyed home to seal the win for the hosts.
LAFC dominance and Atlanta’s resistance
Throughout the match, LAFC controlled possession and created more chances. The home team registered 15 total shots, compared to just 3 from Atlanta, and 4 on target against 1 from the visitors. LAFC also edged possession with 54.5% to 45.5%.
Atlanta’s defensive organization kept the score level until the closing minutes. Head coach Gonzalo Pineda made offensive substitutions — Emmanuel Latte Lath, Tristan Muyumba, and Saba Lobjanidze — in an effort to spark the attack.
For LAFC, Jeremy Ebobisse came on in the 83rd minute to boost the offense, and only minutes later, Bouanga broke the deadlock.
The hero and what the result means
Once again, Denis Bouanga was LAFC’s hero. The Cameroonian forward scored the winner and continues to be the key attacking force for the Los Angeles club, which remains firmly in the playoff race.
For Atlanta United, the defeat adds to a frustrating season. The team showed defensive discipline but lacked efficiency going forward and struggled to maintain focus in the final moments.
Final thoughts
This 1–0 win highlights LAFC’s ability to stay patient and decisive under pressure. Bouanga’s consistency up front remains a major asset, as the team continues its strong push near the top of the Western Conference standings.
