Following a 7-1 victory over NPSL side FC Arizona in the First Round of the 2025 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, LAFC2 faces USL League One side AV Alta FC in the Second Round on Tuesday, April 1, at Lancaster Municipal Stadium in Lancaster, CA.
LAFC2 will rely on the performances of rising stars such as U.S. U-17 international Jude Terry and Guatemala U-20 International Matt Evans, both of whom scored braces in last week’s impressive win over FC Arizona.
The Black & Gold enters the Second Round unbeaten (2W-0L-1D) across all competitions, having netted 13 goals in its first three matches.
