Columbus Crew star Cucho Hernández once again stole the show as he led his team to a dramatic victory over LAFC in the Leagues Cup final Sunday. The Colombia international scored twice, including the decisive goal in the 92nd minute, to secure a 3-1 victory to claim the trophy. The Crew beat LAFC for the second straight final after lifting the MLS Cup last December. "I am happy for the fans and my family. This is my job and I am glad my teammates can enjoy it," Hernández told Apple TV after the game. Columbus retained the Leagues Cup title for the MLS, a year after Inter Miami claimed the inaugural edition of the tournament that showcases clubs from both MLS and Liga MX. The match, played in front of a packed crowd at the Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio, was a thrilling affair from start to finish.
