Son Heung-min Scores Debut MLS Goal as LAFC Held 1-1 by Dallas

Son Heung-min scored his first Major League Soccer goal six minutes into Los Angeles FC’s 1-1 draw with FC Dallas, curling a 22-yard free kick beyond goalkeeper Michael Collodi at Toyota Stadium. The South Korean forward, signed this month for a club-record fee, has now produced a goal and an assist in three appearances for LAFC, which has lost only twice in its last 18 league matches and sits third in the Western Conference at 11-6-8. Dallas levelled seven minutes later when Logan Farrington lashed home Patrickson Delgado’s pass for his fifth goal of the season. Collodi finished with four saves, while Hugo Lloris was largely untroubled at the other end. LAFC hosts San Diego FC on 31 August; Dallas is idle until a 6 September visit to St. Louis City. In Washington, an understaffed Inter Miami drew 1-1 with D.C. United after leaving Lionel Messi out because of a hamstring concern and resting several regulars ahead of the Leagues Cup semifinal. Substitute Baltasar Rodríguez equalised in the 64th minute with a dipping volley that cancelled out Jackson Hopkins’ early strike. The result keeps Miami fifth in the Eastern Conference at 13-7-5, eight points behind leaders Philadelphia, while last-place United (4-15-9) was mathematically eliminated from playoff contention.
