LAFC earned a hard-fought point in a 1-1 draw against Austin FC on Wednesday night at BMO Stadium. A goal from second-half substitute David Martínez helped the team

Martínez scored the equalizer for LAFC (14-7-7) in the 62nd minute with assists from defender Ryan Hollingshead and Eduard Atuesta. It was the second goal for the 18-year-old in his 11th career appearance — all as a substitute. Hollingshead’s helper was his fourth of the season and Atuesta’s was his fifth.

Solid ATX defending held Olivier Giroud, Denis Bouanga, and the Black and Gold to just six shots on goal and 1.4 expected goals, while the Verde and Black capitalized on a chance late in the first half to take the lead in the match, only to see that lead erased after the hour mark.

David Martínez scores to tie the score at 1-1 for LAFC vs. Austin FC.
