Torres injured himself a few minutes before the hour mark, the forward making a tackle and feeling a twinge on his trailing leg.
Las Vegas found the tying goal in the 62nd minute from the player who replaced Torres, with LAFC Academy player Marvin Gamez hitting a second header off a header across the grain, Gamez’s header bouncing off the bottom of the crossbar and off San Diego GK Trey Muse to hit the back of the net.
I think this was fully a development game for Lights FC, and Steve Cherundolo gave debuts to the likes of Eric Iloski and Michael Yeboah and playing time to plenty of rookies and youth players.
