CENGIZ UNDER NEWS

Takes two shots in MLS debut Under had two shots (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Austin FC.

Impact Under made his first appearance with LAFC but struggled to make an impact; although he looked active in the wing, he was lacking the end product. The winger is expected to play a prominent role for LAFC all season long, where he could play a big role in the attack alongside Denis Bouanga (not injury related).
