Austin FC suffered its first multi-goal defeat of the 2022 season Sunday night, falling on the road to the LA Galaxy, 4-1.

Austin FC goalkeeper Brad Stuver saves a penalty kick attempt by LA Galaxy striker Javier"Chicharito" Hernandez early in the match

But just four minutes later, 22-year-old Croatian striker Dejan Joveljic entered the match as a Galaxy substitute, then proceeded to play one of the best half-hours that any MLS player has produced all season. Joveljic either scored or assisted on all four Galaxy goals, starting in the 61st minute with an outrageous back heel pass to Mexican strike partner Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez, who popped the easy finish past Brad Stuver.

“I thought the first 60 minutes was really solid. Disappointing to lose our grip a bit there,” ATX coach Josh Wolff said of the way LA rapidly swayed the match. , although the Texas side remains one spot ahead in the Western Conference standings in fourth place, behind the Galaxy’s crosstown rivals LAFC, FC Dallas, and Real Salt Lake.
