Assists for draw
Ordaz assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Wednesday's 1-1 draw versus Houston Dynamo.
Analysis: Ordaz provided the only assist during Wednesday's draw. The winger created a pair of chances before Tai Baribo finally finished one and gave him his assist. Ordaz will continue to be a threat in the back half of the season, especially if he can reliably link up with Baribo as a potentially lethal duo up top.
Traded to D.C. United
Ordaz was acquired by D.C. United from LAFC, the club announced.
Analysis: Ordaz made nine MLS appearances this season with LAFC, scoring two goals and adding an assist across 501 minutes, and also featured in five CONCACAF Champions Cup matches. The forward spent three and a half seasons with LAFC after signing as a Homegrown player in 2022, tallying 14 goals and eight assists across 98 appearances in all competitions, with his best campaign coming in 2025 when he produced five goals and five assists in 26 MLS games. A U22 Initiative signing, Ordaz has also earned 14 caps for El Salvador, scoring twice. Ordaz is expected to add depth and flexibility to D.C. United's attack as he can operate as both a striker and a winger.
