Carlos Vela scored his second and third goals of the season and added an assist, and visiting Los Angeles FC held on for a 3–2 victory over the rival LA Galaxy on Sunday, April 16, in Carson, Calif.
Vela’s second goal came from the penalty spot in the 68th minute to give his team a second lead. Two minutes later his corner found Ryan Hollingshead for the eventual game-winner as LAFC (5–0–2, 17 points) remained the only unbeaten team in MLS.
