MLS: Mamadou Ibra Mbacké Fall still shines with Los Angeles FC
Scorer against the Portland Timbers, Mamadou Fall confirmed his very good start to the season in MLS with Los Angeles FC.
Once again, Mamadou Ibra Mbacké Fall confirmed that he is more than just a central defender who must contain the opponent’s offensive assaults. Already the author of an excellent season in 2020-2021 with four goals scored in 19 MLS appearances, the 19-year-old is already starting to shine in this new caMajor League Soccer campaign.
Holder for the second time in as many days, he offered the point of a draw to Los Angeles FC by scoring his first goal of the season in the last moments of the match against his former team Portland Timbers (1-1) during the night from Sunday to Monday. Alone at the penalty spot, like a top striker, Mbacké Fall took advantage of a sublime work by Brian Rodríguez to beat Maxime Crépeau.
