“My fault“: LAFC Mistakenly Sub Off Carlos Vela in LAFC Season-Opener

It all started 20 minutes in the contest, when LAFC star Carlos Vela appeared to tweak his knee while lunging for a cross from teammate Corey Baird. The attacker immediately motioned for a trainer to come look at the knock, which was evidently interpreted by head coach Bob Bradley as a sign that Vela was asking to be subbed off. #MLS #LAFC #CarlosVela Subscribe to our channel for more soccer content: - Follow us on Twitter: - Like us on Facebook: - Follow us on Instagram: For more information about MLS, go to the league’s official website:
