Inside LAFC's star-studded MLS Cup party as Will Ferrell chugs beer with Gareth Bale

Will Ferrell chugged beer and Gareth Bale was drenched in Heineken as LAFC celebrated winning their first-ever MLS Cup on Saturday. The Welsh superstar came off the bench to score a dramatic late equaliser to force a penalty shoot-out.

LAFC, who are part-owned by a consortium of A-list celebrities including Ferrell, Magic Johnson, Tony Robbins and Mia Hamm-Garciaparra, won the MLS Cup in the most dramatic fashion on Saturday night.

Playing in front of their home fans against the Philadelphia Union, LAFC twice squandered the lead in normal time before a dramatic extra time saw both teams score after the 120th minute. In the end it was a perfect penalty shoot-out for LAFC, who didn't allow Philadelphia to score as they won 3-0 to take home the trophy, which was quickly used as a prop.
