MLS 2023 Final Editorial Illustration

For my passion for Soccer, I wanted to make my own illustration for the MLS final in 2023. The match was between the reigning champs, Columbus Crew SC. They were up against, Los Angeles FC, better known as, LAFC. Before creating my illustration, I read an article about the matchup, stating that LAFC might take the silverware from Columbus. Which gave me a spark for the idea of this illustration. I made LAFC's star player, Denis Bouanga, take the MLS CUP trophy from the stand while two big names for Columbus Crew, Diego Rossi and Cucho Hernandez, chasing him to retrieve the trophy back. Worked in Adobe Illustrator.
