Son Heung-Min scored his first MLS hat trick and visiting Los Angeles FC earned a 4-1 victory over Real Salt Lake on Wednesday in Sandy, Utah. Denis Bouanga added his 94th career LAFC goal in all competitions late in the second half to become the club’s all-time leading scorer. The win lifted the Black and Gold (13-7-8, 47 points) up to fourth in the Western Conference above the Seattle Sounders. Bouanga now has 19 MLS goals this season, the third-best total in the league. He also assisted Son’s third goal of the night and fifth in six league matches since his August arrival from Tottenham Hotspur. LAFC got its second hat trick in as many games after Bouanga scored three times in a 4-2 road win over the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday. Zavier Gozo cut Real Salt Lake’s deficit to 2-1 on a sensational side volley in the 76th minute. RSL (10-15-4, 34 points), which has lost four of its past five matches and sits 10th in the West, a point behind San Jose and the last playoff place. Salt Lake forward Victor Olatunji was sent off deep in second-half stoppage time for violent conduct and will be suspended when these sides convene again Sunday in Southern California. Son opened the scoring in the third minute. After players from both sides made tackles on the ball in the center circle, Timothy Tillman won the last of those challenges and directed the ball perfectly into Son’s speculative run down the left. The 33-year-old had plenty of time to take two settling touches before driving a low finish past RSL goalkeeper Rafael. Son doubled the visitors’ lead 13 minutes later.
MUNICH: Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern Munich beat Chelsea 3-1 at home in their Champions League opener on Wednesday. Michael Olize pressured Trevoh Chalobah into an own goal with 20 minutes gone, before Kane won and converted a penalty seven minutes later. Cole Palmer finished off a superb team counter-attack just two minutes later to bring Chelsea back into the game. But Kane stepped up again midway through the second half to wrestle control back Bayern’s way. England captain Kane says facing Premier League sides gives him extra motivation to “play better,” and Chelsea were on the receiving end as he climbed up to 10 goals in just six games this season. Bayern captain Manuel Neuer, the last survivor from the 2012 Champions League final between the sides, won by Chelsea at the same venue, brought up his 100th win in the competition.
MANCHESTER: Manchester United posted record revenues in their latest annual accounts despite missing out on Champions League soccer and enduring their its worst-ever Premier League campaign. But despite revenues of 666.5 million pounds ($910 million) the 20-time English champion still reported losses of 33 million pounds ($45 million). “To have generated record revenues during such a challenging year for the club demonstrate the resilience which is a hallmark of Manchester United,” chief executive Omar Berrada said. The accounts for the year ending June 30, 2025, came after minority owner Jim Ratcliffe embarked on cost-cutting measures, which have seen two rounds of job cuts with an estimated reduction of more than 400 members of staff, as well as ticket price hikes. United told fans in January they could not sustain their losses and Ratcliffe later said the club were in danger of running out of money by the end of the year. Losses fell from 113.2 million pounds to 33 million. United’s commercial strength comes despite their ongoing troubles on the field, which have seen them struggle to keep pace with Premier League rivals like Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal. They did not play in the lucrative Champions League last season and finished 15th in England’s 20-team top division — their lowest since the inception of the Premier League in 1992. They also recorded their lowest points total and highest number of losses, which led to them failing to qualify for any European soccer competition this season. United have not won the league title since Alex Ferguson retired in 2013. This season has not started well either, with Ruben Amorim’s team only winning one of four games and having been eliminated from the English
