LAFC defender Mohamed El Monir reminded us this weekend why you should never give up.
El Monir’s side were up against Houston Dynamo when striker Alberth Elis nodded the ball past goalkeeper Tyler Miller and prepared to tap into the empty net.
But Elis didn’t account for the unbreakable willpower of El Monir, who nipped in and prevented what looked like being a certain goal.
