Cleared of arm injury
Hasal (arm) is available for Saturday's MLS clash against Vancouver Whitecaps after being omitted from the league's latest injury report.
Analysis: Hasal had been sidelined with an arm issue, but his removal from the injury report indicates he has recovered and is cleared to return to the matchday squad. The goalkeeper has primarily served as the main backup behind Hugo Lloris, although he had earned some playing time before his injury and impressed with his shot-stopping ability during a Leagues Cup appearance. With Hasal back in contention, LAFC regain additional depth between the posts, though he is expected to remain in a reserve role behind Lloris.
Arm injury rules him out
Hasal is unavailable for the time being due to an arm issue, the league reported Friday.
Analysis: Hasal is the main backup option behind goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and has made a few appearances lately, so an arm injury ruling him out means an important reduction in LAFC's depth. The rotational keeper had recently impressed for his shot-stopping ability in a Leagues Cup outing, and the club will hope to have him back as soon as possible, but his recovery timeline is unclear.
Four saves in victory
Hasal made four saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 1-0 win versus Seattle Sounders FC.
Analysis: Hasal came up big with four saves in Sunday's 1-0 home win over Seattle, highlighted by a standout burst off his line to stonewall Jordan Morris in a one-on-one during the 30th minute after Hassani Dotson split the backline with a perfectly weighted through ball. The clean sheet snaps LAFC's four-match winless skid heading into the seven-week World Cup break. Hasal now owns one shutout and five saves across three MLS appearances this season, continuing to deliver steady, reliable minutes for the Black and Gold through a demanding stretch.
One save in 3-2 loss
Hasal made one save in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Nashville SC.
Analysis: Hasal was making his first start of the season with usual starter Hugo Lloris ruled out through injury. He was lit up by a motivated Hany Mukhtar and Nashville SC. With the extended international break on the radar, Hasal could get the nod in LAFC's final match before the break at home against Seattle on Sunday.
