On April 2, 2025, LAFC clinched a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Inter Miami in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinals. Nathan Ordaz scored the decisive goal in the 56th minute with a superb 24-yard strike off a pass from Mark Delgado.
The match was tightly contested as LAFC nearly extended their lead later, but a crucial goal-line block by Inter Miami’s Maximiliano Falcon thwarted a second effort from Timothy Tillman.

The return leg is scheduled for April 9 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
