LAFC’s 8-game unbeaten run ends 1-0 in San Diego on an 88th-minute penalty — and this week we’re not just recapping it. We break down the underlying numbers (LAFC actually out-shot and out-tackled San Diego), grade Marc Dos Santos’s night sub-by-sub, and then get into why a growing share of LAFC supporters are done giving this team the benefit of the doubt: the MDS skepticism, the John Thorrington criticism, the Atlanta United comparison, and whether any of it holds up against a 3rd-place finish with one loss since May. Plus: everything you need on Wednesday’s trip to Colorado.
