Announcers go silent on two goals. [View all]

Watching the LAFC (at home) vs Vancouver Whitecaps game that I had recorded a day ago, I noticed something odd. When Vancouver scored, the announcers went silent. Not a word. No acknowledgement of the goals. I've never seen that happen before. Home team bias, sure, but never that extreme.
