Minnesota United FC

LAFC cruised to a 2-0 win against Minnesota United in a Wednesday night match in Los Angeles where the final score belied the lopsided nature of the action.

Diego Rossi looked to have LAFC in the lead after Eduard Atuesta played him clear into the area, but the Uruguayan's chipped effort bounced back off the far post to keep the match goalless.

The hosts were on the front foot throughout the opening 45 minutes and the pressure finally told in the 31st when Rossi picked out Atuesta in the center of the penalty area and his perfect first touch set him up for an easy finish and a 1-0 lead.
