News about Carlos Vela

According to AS, right winger Carlos Vela of LAFC could be preparing to move to cross-town rivals the LA Galaxy. According to the article, the Galaxy had attempted to Vela's entourage while he is still a free agent. Real Sociedad of Vela, as well as fellow MLS team NYFC, have all been reported to be interested in signing Vela.

Only before the first round of the upcoming MLS Cup Playoffs, Los Angeles FC captain and star forward Carlos Vela was quick to criticize the newly introduced MLS Cup Playoffs. The new format sees the debut of a best-of-three series that practically draws out the competition compared to previous seasons. Vela, the team's manager, said the change was chaotic after a close and competitive start to the season in 2022.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is no longer a member of MLS, but it appears that there is no love lost between him and his former adversare Carlos Vela. The two were on opposite sides of Los Angeles' MLS rivalry from 2018-19 (Vela is now with LAFC) and former Galaxy man Ibrahimovic put up high gaudy numbers in the United States. However, he was unable to lead his side to silverware in the City of Angels, a fact Vela was keen to remind when asked to compare the Swede's impact in MLS to Lionel Messi's.

Carlos Vela, Stipe Biuk, and Jose Cifuentes all scored within the last 20 minutes as Los Angeles FC defeated St Louis in a table-top battle. St Louis led the West by three points, with LAFC finishing third, but LAFC defeated Seattle Sounders in third on Wednesday, closing the gap at the top to only two points. Until late in the game, it seemed that both sides were content to settle for a draw, but LA's ever-reliable Vela led the scoring to put the team up.

In Pasadena, the LA Galaxy defeated crosstown rival LAFC 2-1 in front of a record-breaking Major League Soccer crowd of 82,110 fans. When Tyler Boyd curled a stunning shot into the top corner from the penalty area, Galaxy, who had endured a miserable season so far, took the lead. In the second half, MLS Cup holders LAFC equalized when Ilie Sanchez peeled off his marker at the near post to flash his team level with a smart header.

In its first-ever victory over the LA Galaxy 3-2 in LAFC's first-ever victory over the city of their bitter rivals. Since winning at Dignity Health Sports Park in 2018, the reigning MLS Cup Champions had never triumphed at Dignity Health Sports Park, but this has changed thanks to superstar striker Carlos Vela and Ryan Hollingshead. El Trafico certainly lived up to the hype, with both teams battling a tense 90-minute match.

Los Angeles FC won by 4-2 on aggregate after a tense loss to Costa Rican side Alajuelense in the CONCACAF Champions League on Wednesday night, with a 2-1 home loss good enough to give them a 2-1 victory on aggregate. Alajuelense led by 2-0 in the second half, and with away goals used as a tiebreaker, the tie was just one goal away from tying the match at BMO Field. However, captain Carlos Vela calmed nerves with a cool finish in the 83rd minute to give LAFC a two-goal aggregate advantage and effectively ended the game.

After the Timbers struggled to deal with a corner in the 24th minute of Saturday's game at BMO Stadium, home of LAFC, the Euro 2020 champion (left and right) scored a tap-in from a Kellyn Acosta cross. Carlos Vela, the former Athenal and Mexican international, who had 12 goals and 11 assists in 35 games last season, scored from the 34th minute to give Los Angeles a 2-0 lead going into halftime.

It's the time of year for soccer in the United States, with 29 teams, including a new one on Saturday, scheduled to begin with 29 teams, including a brand new one on Saturday. Los Angeles FC, the reigning champions, is hoping to do it all again, but this time without Gareth Bale. After the Mexican scored 12 goals and registered 11 assists in 32 games last season, the Black and Gold will call its chosen player and 33-year-old captain Carlos Vela to lead the team to the top of the Western Conference. Philadelphia will be back in the MLS Cup Final to win the league and exact revenge after Bale scored a goal for LAFC in the last few seconds of time added to the game to penalties in extra time. Philly was eventually dissatisfied with spot kicks.

Following Mexico's 2-0 loss to Argentina on Saturday, Mexican national team supporters became outspoken on social media. Most of the outrage expressed by fans revolved around the fact that Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez was not included in the squad by head coach Tata Martino, who may have made a big difference in Saturday's victory. Mexico now ranks last in Group C with just one game remaining in group stage play.

Los Angeles FC secured its first trip to the MLS Cup with a 3-0 victory over Austin FC in Sunday's Western Conference final, with Cristian Arango scoring early and Kwadwo Opoku scoring late. Between those goals, LAFC also scored from an own goal on an early-second-half corner kick to keep the show on the track despite the fact that they've been leading the West since early May and winning the MLS Supporters' Shield for the best regular-season record. In the home side, where the team's first-ever player signing Carlos Vela resulted in goals, one of the season's best performances.

As plans for all-star games pick up steam among football executives, a squad made up a combined Premier League XI could face similar ensembles from Europe's top domestic tournaments. The idea of a Premier League all-star game has recently been floated by Chelsea owner Todd Boehly, who suggested a north vs. south game that would attract large audiences in other countries, despite being barred from American sports. Boehly's plans were controversial, highlighting the discordance in opinions on how to convert a distinctly American style of the game into a spectacular sport.

Gareth Bale was forced to miss another evening after being recalled after an hour of Los Angeles FC's 1-1 draw with Minnesota on Tuesday. Bale was making his second appearance for the team after he was drafted on a free transfer in July, but he failed to control the proceedings and was removed with his team 1-0 down after Brett Kallman's opener on the stroke of half time. Matthew Doyle, a football reporter, sent out a tweet highlighting Bale's negative impact on LA's goal difference when he has been on the pitch this term.

After reports showed that the veteran defender has the second most jersey sales since joining the MLS, Christian Fuchs appears to have found a surprising new level of fame since joining the league. After a year in the United States, Fuchs joined Charlotte from Leicester City last summer, and it appears he has gained a following. The number of people supporting replica shirts with his name on seemed to have risen dramatically. According to MLSSoccer, the 36-year-old has the second highest shirt sales in the division, with only Gareth Bale's arrival at LAFC in the summer eclipse eclipsing his total for 2022.

Christian Benteke (left), the United States' youngest signing, as well as fellow Designated Player Carlos Vela, Javier Hernandez, Gonzalo Hiri, and Xherdan Shaqiri, must be on hand to impress him. What links all of them? Having participated in the Premier League, the most competitive and prestigious in the world. And Benteke has scored more than 45 of the 4,535 players in the tournament's 30-year history. Eden Hazard, Fernando Torres, Carlos Tevez, Eric Cantona, Luis Suarez, and a certain Mr. David Beckham have all set goals there, with none less than legendary Dutchman Dennis Bergkamp. So Benteke, who has been signed to Crystal Palace, has extensive experience and a solid goalscoring pedigree (inset) at the top level. However, at 31, his best years are behind him, and Palace isn't all about straightforward sailing, with a string of niggly injuries and years of frustration and goal droughts. With Benteke leaving the Eagles as the third-choice striker, it's certainly a gamble for Wayne Rooney's DC United, but perhaps now is the right time to take a chance on the signing (right). Sportsmail examines whether Benteke will be a success in the US capital and explores whether he is the one to turn the Black-and-Reds' season around.

Bale (left and right) has yet to start a game since being drafted in MLS, and the LAFC's last home game against DC United continued this trend. When Los AngelesFC learned of the Timms family's tragic tale, they invited the family to watch the team train, with Bale taking time to chat and photograph the group from Porthcawl. "We planned our holiday and we always try to get a MLS match in, and we knew that this was going to be the match for us," mom Rebecca said.

The 31-year-old Spaniard plied his trade with Real Betis in La Liga before being released at the end of the 2021/22 season. According to a story, Tello is now a free agent and could be a Los Angeles FC player in 'hours.'

On Saturday night, Wayne Rooney's DC United were defeated 1-0 by the New England Revolution, leaving the club stranded seven points adrift at the bottom of the Eastern Conference. DC lost to Washington after Carles Gil, the former Aston Villa midfielder, scored in just the 18th minute at the Gillette Stadium, giving Rooney his second defeat since returning to Washington as coach. However, Rooney's staff may have signs of life, despite whispering it to the world.

PETER CARLINE AT THE ALLIANZ FIELD: For the bulk of All-Star Week, Adrian Heath and Javier Hernandez have discussed the nexus between MLS and Mexico's Liga MX. Following a 2-1 victory at St Paul's Allianz Field, it was perhaps fitting that it was a Mexican who led MLS All-Stars to victory and earned further bragging rights over their neighbors. Carlos Vela's home in the third minute and Carlos Acevedo's second half penalty gave the team victory over an MLS All-Star squad featuring Javier Hernandez, Walker Zimmerman, and home favorite Emanuel Reynoso.
