Los Angeles FC history
LAFC came into being on October 30, 2014, then waited until the 2018 season to debut as an MLS expansion side in the Western Conference. The managing owners are Larry Berg, Brandon Beck and Bennett Rosenthal, and the long list of part-owners includes Will Ferrell and Mia Hamm. Bob Bradley was the first head coach, serving from 2017 to 2021 before Steven Cherundolo took over.
Success came fast. In only its second season, 2019, the club won the Supporters' Shield while captain Carlos Vela was named MVP. The 2022 campaign brought a first MLS Cup plus a second Shield, a league double. LAFC also reached the CONCACAF Champions League final in 2020 and 2023, finishing second both times, and claimed the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup in 2024.
