Eagles Stay Unbeaten With Late Equalizer at LA City
Los Angeles, CA — September 16, 2025
The Los Angeles Mission College men's soccer team battled to a 1–1 draw against Los Angeles City College on Tuesday night, extending their unbeaten streak to six matches.
First Half
City carried much of the possession and dictated the tempo early on. Their control was rewarded in the 35th minute, when Jorge Gomez broke through to give the home side a 1–0 advantage. Mission, however, stayed organized and relied on key stops from goalkeeper Josue Orona, who finished the match with eight saves to keep his team within reach.
Second Half
Los Angeles City continued to press and hold much of the ball after halftime, but the Eagles refused to fold. Mission stayed disciplined, absorbed the pressure, and looked for their chance to respond.
That moment came in the 89th minute, when a City College handball in the box gave Mission a penalty. Midfielder Diego Ceja stepped up and calmly converted from the spot, leveling the score at 1–1 and ensuring the Eagles left with a result.
