FC Dallas nearly picked up a valuable road point last weekend at LAFC but a late goal got in the way. As you might expect, some folks out in Power Rankings land were down on the club a bit for the loss.

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

[MLSSoccer.com - Rank 11 (down 1)](https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/power-rankings-columbus-crew-orlando-city-surge-after-matchday-5?ref=bigdsoccer.com)

Comment: Dallas nearly pulled out a somewhat impressive point despite going down to 10 men in the first half. But even after Carlos Vela bounced a late penalty off the crossbar, they couldn’t hold onto a 1-1 draw at LAFC.

ESP[NFC - Rank 8 (same)](https://www.espn.com/soccer/mls/story/4910581/mls-power-rankings-morris-takes-seattle-to-the-top?ref=bigdsoccer.com)

Comment: Dallas have to meet VAR outside the stadium after it ruled out a goal and got them sent down to 10 men all before halftime in a loss at LAFC.
