Last Time Out

St. Louis CITY SC earned a hard-fought 2-2 draw against LAFC last Sunday at BMO Stadium, marking their first-ever away point against the Black and Gold. Cedric Teuchert opened the scoring in the 52nd minute, finishing a well-worked play assisted by Jannes Horn and Timo Baumgartl. LAFC’s Denis Bouanga equalized in the 70th minute, but CITY responded with a go-ahead goal in the 90th, despite being down a man. Bouanga struck again in stoppage time to salvage a draw for the hosts. Goalkeeper Ben Lundt made his first career penalty save and tallied seven total stops, his second-highest single-game total of the season.

Run It Back

Just 64 days ago, on March 15, St. Louis CITY SC secured a 1-0 victory over Seattle at Energizer Park. Eduard Löwen jumpstarted the attack with a stunning free-kick goal in the 16th minute, while goalkeeper Ben Lundt recorded his first career MLS clean sheet and win. The result at the time, marked CITY SC’s fourth straight shutout and their second consecutive victory. Defensively, St. Louis continues to impress and currently tied for third in goals allowed across MLS, alongside the Columbus Crew and Charlotte FC.
