DC United and Los Angeles FC played out a goalless draw in MLS, with neither side able to find a breakthrough. The match was tight and cautious, with clear chances at a premium throughout.
There were no goals to report, and the best moment of the game came when DC United put their only shot on target, forcing a save from the LAFC goalkeeper. Los Angeles FC had the lion's share of the ball but could not turn possession into attempts at goal.
The standout numbers came from the contrast in styles: LAFC controlled 69% of possession and completed 73 accurate passes, yet DC United mustered the only shot on target and registered the higher expected goals figure of 0.04 to 0.00.
