They would bring their lead up to two with a goal from Handwalla Bwana at 68’. Orlando City wouldn’t allow a clean sheet. Christopher Mueller scored at 75’ but it was too late for his team.

Thursday

LAFC 2-0 FC Dallas

A random Thursday game brought victory for LAFC. They pulled off a clean sheet against FC Dallas. Carlos Vela stuck first, netting one at 39’. Diego Rossi wrapped it up with his goal at 83’. No hope for Dallas.

Dio ➡️ Rossi



Upon further review... the ruling on the field is a GOAL!!!#LAFCvDAL pic.twitter.com/xwm2sBIJ8b — LAFC (@LAFC) May 17, 2019

Saturday

Montreal Impact 0-0 New England Revolution

Not much to write about here since the game remained scoreless. The shots between the Montreal Impact and New England Revolution were about even, but Montreal controlled ball possession 63% to New England’s 37%. No one could find the back of the net.

San Jose Earthquakes 4-1 Chicago Fire

Chris Wondolowski had himself a game. He went into the game one goal behind Landon Donovan for the MLS all time leading goal scoring record. He scored his first goal of the season at 21’, that tied him up with Donovan. Goal number two came at 48’, which broke the record. He didn’t stop there, he hammered two more home to seal the deal (74’, 76’). This was also the first time he ever scored four goals in one match. I guess we shouldn’t leave out the Chicago Fire goal that was scored by Aleksander Katai at 83’, but this game belonged to Wondo. He broke the record with 146 goals.

Sporting KC 1-1 Vancouver Whitecaps

New York Red Bulls 1-0 Atlanta United

Atlanta controlled the game against the New York Red Bulls, but the score doesn’t reflect that. They had ball possession more and took more shots, but it was New York who had the final laugh. Before they scored, they were given a red card. down a man, Tom Barlow found the net (65’) and that was all she wrote.

This goal doesn't happen without Sean Nealis' dribbling and Daniel Royer's delivery! #RBNY pic.twitter.com/p4uMzhLjNS — New York Red Bulls (@NewYorkRedBulls) May 20, 2019
