We’re only two weeks into the new season and the MLS gods have already gifted us with a strong contender for game of the season. Sunday night’s (and, depending on where you live in the country, Monday morning’s) 3-3 draw between Los Angeles FC, the 2019 Supporters’ Shield winners, and the Philadelphia Union, 2019 Eastern Conference semifinalists, was filled with energy, quality and a handful of golazos.



Union striker Sergio Santos started the scoring with a left-footed strike from outside the box in the 29th minute. Not to be outdone, Carlos Vela leveled the scoreline a few minutes before halftime with a free kick that sailed past Andre Blake and into the very top left corner of the net. Three minutes into the second half, Philadelphia center back Jakob Glesnes converted a free kick of his own from well outside the box to reclaim the lead. Three goals later and the match ended in a ridiculous six goal draw.



But what made Sunday...
