Former English Premier League teammates Ashley Westwood and Scott Arfield each scored goals as Charlotte FC earned a 2–1 victory over visiting Los Angeles FC on Saturday, August 26, in their return to MLS play.
Westwood scored his second goal of the season, while Arfield scored for the first time in his fourth MLS game after coming on as a substitute in the 72nd minute and scoring three minutes later. The players were teammates at Burnley in 2016–17 and 2017–18.
