What a difference a week makes, huh?

FC Dallas picked up their first win of the 2023 season as they downed the LA Galaxy 3-1\. Jesus Ferreira and Alan Velasco each found the back of the net, providing some good momentum for the duo as the club hits the road this weekend in Vancouver.

Here is what the latest Power Rankings had to say about the win:

[MLSSoccer.com - Rank 11 (up 6)](https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/power-rankings-seattle-sounders-seize-top-spot-after-matchday-2?ref=bigdsoccer.com)

Comment: Jesús Ferreira just despises the Galaxy. Just outright spiteful stuff from him every time they play it seems like. He scored a brace against LA for the second straight year and Dallas responded very nicely after last week’s strugglebus in attack, rightfully earning a 3-1 win. For whatever reason, the best version of Nico Estevez’s Dallas side always pops up against the Galaxy.

[ESPNFC - Rank 10 (up 2)](https://www.espn.com/soccer/mls/story/4894678/mls-power-rankings-miami-moves-up-but-philly-stays-top?ref=bigdsoccer.com)

Comment: Two goals for Jesús Ferreira against the Galaxy, three points for Dallas and we could find ourselves in "he's not just a one-season wonder!" territory soon, despite nobody actually calling the forward a one-season wonder.
