FC Dallas beat LAFC 1-0 after LAFC had a late equalizer disallowed

Los Angeles Football Club fell 1-0 to FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas, on September 26, 2026, after Osaze Urhoghide scored a first-half goal and the visitors had a late equalizer disallowed by video review. The result dropped the Black & Gold to 11-8-9 with 41 points on the Major League Soccer season, while FC Dallas improved to 13-8-6 and 47 points.

The match’s turning point arrived in the 34th minute when Dallas forced a corner kick. Joaquín Valiente swung the dead-ball delivery directly into the center of the LAFC penalty area, where Urhoghide outjumped the defense to head past goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. Match statistics from ESPN show Dallas outshot LAFC 12 to 2 over the course of the fixture, though Lloris managed a crucial series of saves to keep his side within striking distance.

LAFC thought they had leveled the score in the 73rd minute when forward Armindo Sieb found the back of the net. Referee Sergii Boiko reviewed the sequence on the advice of video assistant referee Younes Marrakchi and ultimately waved off the goal, ruling that Sieb had interfered with Dallas goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois during the buildup. In the dying seconds of regular time, Sergi Palencia executed a bicycle kick that forced another sharp save from Sirois to preserve the clean sheet and the 1-0 victory for the hosts.
