WATCH: Riqui Puig grabs first assist on full LA Galaxy debut

Former Barcelona midfielder Riqui Puig has picked up his first assist for new club LA Galaxy at the weekend in a 2-1 victory over the New England Revolution.

It was Puig’s first start since swapping La Liga for Major League Soccer and he didn’t disappoint with a great pass to Javier Hernandez.

Chicharito made no mistake with the finish to put LA Galaxy 2-0 up after just 15 minutes. Carles Gil did pull one back for the hosts late on but it was to prove only a consolation.

Hernandez was full of praise for his new team-mate after the win.
