Travis, Vince, and Darren react to LAFC’s frustrating 1-1 home draw with Querétaro at BMO Stadium, where we advance the night on penalties but miss the chance to clinch progression outright. We break down the rotated starting lineup, conceding early, and how the low block exposed ongoing issues creating chances when we don’t score first. We talk halftime fixes (Tim Tillman and David Martinez changing the match), the missed sitters from Son, Bouanga, Tafari, and Choinière, and why the second-half performance still wasn’t clinical enough. We also unpack the unforgiving, confusing Leagues Cup format and the exact results we now need from Chicago/Austin, vent about inconsistent refereeing and time-wasting, touch on injuries, roster depth, and the complications around adding a DP, then wrap with callers, Super Chats, and our happy feet/sad feet from the night.
