AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Los Angeles FC controlled the tempo for long spells, holding 61% of possession and registering 15 shots to DC United's 14, along with eight corners to the hosts' five.

Hugo Lloris was the top-rated performer on the pitch, earning an 8.3 rating as Los Angeles FC's last line of defence held firm without conceding.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave DC United 25%, the draw 21%, Los Angeles FC 54%. It finished DC United 0–0 Los Angeles FC.
Los Angeles FC's rating gap outweighs DC United's home ground — Los Angeles FC are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Los Angeles FC's 54%. The draw at 21% is about what a gap this size usually leaves.
Why Los Angeles FC at 54%?
Los Angeles FC sit 331 points higher on our strength rating — 1373 to 1704. Sides with a more than 300-point rating edge on the road won 65.9% of 5,217 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 22–23–55.
Why only 54%?
Major League Soccer home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (25.8% vs 30.2%). Major League Soccer homes won 49.4% of 5,116 games vs 44.9% across all 99,457 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why is the draw only 21%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 22.0%. These teams' recent games average 2.9 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 24,900.
What did we measure but not count?
Los Angeles FC average 8 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 331 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. DC United are missing 4 regular starters — Peglow, Lucas Bartlett, Silvan Hefti — about 33% of their usual starting-XI weight. Our measured receipt covers one-sided absences only, and the picture here isn't one-sided — both squads are short. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
