""We've played well against them, and we play well at home, especially. "We talk about being bold and not just waiting for things to happen to be the protagonists in games. "We want to give our fans something to be proud of again, and that's a trip to the playoffs. We don't step on with fear; we love the challenge."
"Meanwhile, LAFC have surged into the conversation as a top contender for the 2025 MLS Cup, winning six of their last seven games to challenge for the West's number two seed. LAFC's attack has been driven by forwards Denis Bouanga and Son Heung-min, who have combined to score 18 of the team's last 20 goals. Bouanga (24 goals, eight assists) enters decision day just two goals behind Lionel Messi in the race for the Golden Boot."
Colorado Rapids must secure at least a draw against Los Angeles FC on Decision Day to remain in contention for a 2025 MLS Cup playoff spot after winning just once in their last six matches. Coach Chris Armas labeled LAFC among the league's best and noted likely returns of Denis Bouanga and Son Heung-min. Colorado lost 1-0 to Real Salt Lake despite generating an xG of 2.2. LAFC have won six of their last seven matches and propelled their bid with Bouanga and Son combining for 18 of the club's last 20 goals, with Bouanga close to the Golden Boot lead.
