LAFC suffered a 1-0 loss to perennial African powers ES Tunis at GEODIS Park in Nashville, Tenn. on Friday in the teams’ second match at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. LAFC is now 0-2-0 (W-L-T) in the tournament after losing its first match, 2-0, to Chelsea on June 16.
Black & Gold goalkeeper Hugo Lloris put on an immense display, making four saves throughout the match.
Tunis’s Youcef Belaïli tallied the game-winning goal in the 70th minute when he slotted home a shot at the back left post during a scramble in the LAFC penalty area.
LAFC was not without chances – the team saw two first half goals called back for offside in its build-up play, and Denis Bouanga was denied from the penalty spot in the final moments of stoppage time.
