“Who is Brandon Vazquez?” is a question that United States men’s national team fans could be asking themselves. If you’re a fan of the USMNT who doesn’t pay too much attention to Major League Soccer, then you might not know about the 23-year-old FC Cincinnati forward.

Unfortunately for Galaxy, he failed again.
In case you haven’t been paying attention for the last five years, Rose Lavelle is very good.
