SAN JOS\u00c9\u00a0\u2014\u00a0Denis Bouanga<\/a> scored his franchise-record 79th career regular-season goal for LAFC<\/a> on Saturday night in a 2-2 tie with the San Jos\u00e9 Earthquakes.<\/p>\n

Reid Roberts scored in the eighth minute of stoppage time for San Jos\u00e9 (12-8-6), which is unbeaten in five straight.<\/p>\n

Aaron Long was shown a straight red card in the 36th minute and LAFC (11-8-8) played a man down the rest of the way.<\/p>\n

Son Heung-min added a goal and an assist and Hugo Lloris had seven saves for LAFC. Son has five goal contributions (two goals, three assists) in the past four games.<\/p>\n

Bouanga, on the counter-attack, put away a first-touch shot, off a cross from Son that slipped between the legs of defender Dave Romney, to make it 2-0 in the 53rd minute. Bouanga has scored a goal in back-to-back games and moved past Carlos Vela (78) on LAFC\u2019s regular-season goals list.<\/p>\n

Son bent a low shot from 24 yards out past the outstretched hand of goalkeeper Angus Gunn and inside the near post to open the scoring in the 34th minute.<\/p>\n

Preston Judd put away a header off an entry played into the area by Timo Werner in the 70th for the Earthquakes. Gunn had one save.<\/p>\n

Up next for LAFC: at Dallas on Sept. 26.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN JOS\u00c9\u00a0\u2014\u00a0Denis Bouanga scored his franchise-record 79th career regular-season goal for LAFC on Saturday night in a 2-2…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":469622,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[184803,6265,17063,73571,18067,423,184804,17065,184802,119116,16465,88,90,89,9011,17064,53488],"class_list":["post-469621","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-jose","tag-34th-minute","tag-assist","tag-denis-bouanga","tag-draw","tag-entry","tag-game","tag-goalkeeper-angus-gunn","tag-hugo-lloris","tag-lafc-goal","tag-outstretched-hand","tag-preston-judd","tag-san-jose","tag-san-jose-headlines","tag-san-jose-news","tag-save","tag-son-heung-min","tag-timo-werner"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469621","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=469621"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469621\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/469622"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=469621"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=469621"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=469621"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
