LAFC has adopted a strong defensive strategy reminiscent of former defender Christie Pearce's philosophy. With goalkeeper Hugo Lloris not conceding any goals in four of their five matches this season, LAFC has achieved four wins. Their recent 3-0 victory against the Columbus Crew marked their first success against this team in four attempts. After losing key offensive players, LAFC's coach Steve Cherundolo has prioritized solid defense, resulting in fewer shots and goals conceded, highlighting a possible strategic shift in the team's playstyle.
When defender Christie Pearce was roaming the backline for the women's national soccer team, she lived by a simple adage. "If we score, we might win," she said. "If they never score, we can't lose."
