Valla Sports — Los Angeles. Figures are as of June 12, 2026, per the sources cited below.
Los Angeles Football Club has reached the midway point of its 2026 Major League Soccer campaign inside the Western Conference playoff picture. As of June 12, 2026, LAFC holds a record of seven wins, five losses and three draws for 24 points through 15 matches — fifth place in the West — per ESPN and FOX Sports. The Black and Gold have scored 24 goals and conceded 17 for a plus-seven goal difference, per ESPN.
Denis Bouanga continues to lead the attack, pacing the club with six goals in the 2026 regular season, per ESPN and FOX Sports. Forward David Martínez is the second-leading scorer with five goals, per ESPN, while Son Heung-min tops the squad with nine assists, per ESPN.
Analysis: Fifth place keeps LAFC comfortably inside the West’s playoff cutoff, but a 24-for, 17-against split points to a side that has been productive rather than dominant at the halfway mark. With Bouanga still the primary finisher and Son driving chance creation, the attack has identity; the reliance on its stars suggests LAFC will lean on them to climb the table. With roughly half the season remaining there is ample runway to push for a higher seed, but the modest goal difference leaves little margin if the defense slips.
