Looking to bounce back from a tough loss to open up their 2023 Challenge Cup at the midweek, Angel City FC was back at home to protect their fortress against budding rivals, San Diego Wave FC. The team welcomed much needed reinforcement in the midfield, as USWNT star Julie Ertz, made her LA debut in the starting XI of today’s match.  All of us when Julie steps onto the field: 🤳 🏃‍♀️#Volemos pic.twitter.com/9A8G7D3Srv — Angel City FC (@weareangelcity) April 22, 2023 Ertz’ impact was evident from jump with the midfielder taking control of the middle of the pitch immediately.

If there has been one problematic area on the pitch for Angel City FC, it’s been the midfield. While not at all for a lack of talent, the team has struggled to find the right combination of players to find the success they know they can achieve in the middle of the pitch. Today, the club announced a more than viable solution to their problem, with the signing of USWNT midfielder, Julie Ertz.

The 2023 season is finally upon us! After a long off-season of contemplating the what-ifs and what-could-have beens, Angel City FC were back on the pitch and ready to build on an incredible inaugural season. Not only was the night special because home-openers to start the season are always such, but because it was also the debut of No. 1 NWSL Draft Pick, Alyssa Thompson, as well as the highly anticipated return of star defender, Sarah Gorden. The team came through with some home opener heat for @birdiesslippers Game Day Strut#Volemos | #NWSL | #LAvNJNY | #AngelCityFC pic.twitter.com/hM1bJ9jqey — Angel…

LAFC are one of just a few teams left in MLS that have yet to lose a match so far this season. At least, not domestically. Tonight, the club put their unbeaten start to the test against an FC Dallas side that hasn’t slipped up since their home-opening loss to start the season. This could be a decent test for the Black & Gold, who haven’t always looked at their peak despite the results saying otherwise. The feisty FCD side won’t be easy to deal with, even with the team playing at home. ⏰ #LAFC MATCHDAY ⏰ pic.twitter.com/Vch4dD4tKm — LAFC…

For the first time this season, LAFC will hit the road for their MLS matchup, taking on the always spicy Seattle Sounders. This is a heavyweight bout four weeks into the season, with LAFC looking to remain perfect. It’s been a busy week for the Black & Gold, having advanced to Champions League Quarterfinals despite losing the second leg just days ago. Now, they look to bounce-back against the team that won CONCACAF Champions League last year, becoming the first-ever MLS side to do so.

New season, new kit. Angel City FC today revealed their new secondary kit (away kit) for the 2023 season. As far as inaugural kits go, the Daylight kit was arguably the best we had ever seen, and was one of the better kits in the entire league last year, which makes following up that act even more difficult. The team went a bit more low-key this time around, with the kit dubbed ‘Represent’ that highlights not just one, but all of LA’s incredible communities. Los Ángeles es más que un lugar. We are the sum of infinite parts: diverse cultures,…

The spring showers were in full for LAFC and their midweek match at BMO Stadium. The team, hosting L.D. Alajuelense in the second leg of the Round of 16 in Champions League, was looking to avoid the second upset of the round and close out the night with a ticket punched to the next round. It wasn’t a great start for the home side, with LD Alajuelense stealing a page from their playbook, drawing a penalty within the first ten minutes of the match. It was cooly converted from the spot, and within minutes the visitors had hope, and the…

The matches keep on coming for the defending champs, with leg two of their Round of 16 matchup in CONCACAF Champions League set for Wednesday at BMO Stadium. LAFC saw a stellar hat-trick performance from Denis Bouanga in leg one, giving his side the 3-0 advantage on aggregate going into this game. Now at home, the black-and-gold hope to avoid being on the wrong end of history in the closeout leg against L.D. Alajuelense. 24 Hours. ⏳ 🆚 @ldacr 🏟️ @BMOStadium ⏰ Tomorrow at 7:30 PM PT 📺 FS2, @TUDNUSA 🏆 @TheChampions — LAFC (@LAFC) March 15, 2023 LAFC have…

0After a dominating Champions League performance in the midweek, it was back to MLS action for the defending champions. While it wasn’t the spectacle of the first ring ceremony, there was still a bit of jewelry to hand out before the match. LAFC original, Latif Blessing, was making his return to BMO Stadium with his new squad, and received his ring, too much applause, prior to proceedings. Forever 🖤💛 pic.twitter.com/MNyWVjdUjr — LAFC (@LAFC) March 13, 2023 As has been the story seemingly since they christened their home stadium way back in 2018, the black-and-gold got off to a hot start…

If you thought the hype for Angel City was just about the excitement for something new, you’d be dead wrong. ACFC proved that tonight, coming close to a sellout — 21k tickets sold — for their first preseason match of the new year. Sure, it helps when the opposition is a massive International side like Club América, but any doubts over whether the same excitement would be there for year two were put to bed by the time the ball was kicked off. As we mentioned ahead of this one, it was not at all about the score at the…
