The new season of MLS has already begun. Last season, Los Angeles FC claimed an emphatic win. The Black and Gold conquered the Western Conference with a gap of 11 points.

While it was a tough race to win in the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia Union beat the remaining sides with a gap of 2 points. Both winners from either conference met for a final showdown back in November.

It was tough for both sides to take the cup home as the match went to penalties after an emphatic 3-3 draw. However, it was LAFC who won the penalties decisively, thus taking the MLS Cup home.

After three months, it’s time for last year’s winners to celebrate their historic win before kicking off their new season against Portland Timbers. During the pregame ceremony, fans unveiled huge banners to honor their two Supporters’ Shield victories as well as their MLS Cup and 2022 Western Conference wins. Despite the winning atmosphere in the stadium, one prominent personality didn’t get to be a part of the festivities.

Soccer world snaps over Will Ferrell’s treatment

It was quite a cup-winning celebration for LAFC. All the players, including the final hero, Gareth Bale, also took part in the celebrations at the BMO pitch. The former Madrid man later tweeted a picture of himself wearing the ring, with LAFC’s part owner and famous actor, Will Ferrell.

And somehow, that has caught the eyes of many soccer fans around the world. In the photo, we can see that co-owner Will Ferrell is not wearing a ring. Furthermore, he wasn’t even at the BMO pitch as he watched from the stands.

Bale receives a warm welcome for MLS return

It was quite amazing to see Gareth Bale return to soccer after the player announced his emotional retirement. The Welish man returned to his former side, took part in the celebrations, and collected his ring.

The striker played a limited yet quality role for Steve Cherundolo’s side, thus clinching a crucial equalizer in the dying moments of the playoff game. Furthermore, Bale was also able to celebrate LAFC’s first win of the opening season.

The Black and Gold had a 3-2 win against the Timbers. George Chiellini broke the deadlock by scoring his first goal for LAFC, while Carlos Vela and Kwadwo Opuko also got their names on the scoresheet.

Nevertheless, It was indeed an emotional moment for Bale to return to soccer. However, one may question Will Ferrell’s treatment, as he is also a part of the team just like anyone else.
