San Jose ended a run of back-to-back defeats on Sunday with a 2-2 draw at Q2 Stadium against Austin FC - a game in which the visitors took the lead on two occasions either side of the half-time break.
Next Match
Jackson Yueill and Jeremy Ebobisse's goals were not enough for maximum points in Texas on the day, but that point earned meant the Quakes remained in decent standing.
Luchi Gonzalez's men are fifth in the Western Conference standings heading into this weekend's round of fixtures, only five points behind first-placed Seattle Sounders.
LAFC has been a standout in both the MLS and on the continental scene this season, as they defeated a familiar foe in the the CONCACAF Champions League semi-finals on Wednesday.
Steve Cherundolo's players must now shift their attention to four consecutive MLS matches in order to extend their excellent unbeaten streak, which has seen them concede only six goals in eight games.
With seven goals in the first eight games, Bouanga is second in the MLS scoring list this season, trailing only the Sounders' Jordan Morris.
