Every MLS Goal from Matchday 5!

It's Cockerell, it's saved for a moment, Brady unable to keep it out, Cockerell scores. Amongst a sea of silence, Montreal celebrates and their tremendous trajectory continues. Just goes to close the hip at the last second but Brady gets a good read on it and decides to switch it up, having two penalties so close back to back. It's two, a blue tilting the tie in Chicago. Chicago fire already, inside 12 minutes, precarious. Cockerell steps up, wondered, going against the other side, closing his body, one time, opens the hips here at the last second.

From Chihos to Haile Selassie, it looked just a little bit offside to me in Sirois. It gives you a chance to really put your foot on it, to make the ball do the work and make the other team chase you around with the lead. Be very smart to see how they do it, especially with these pieces. Martinez, Yakov! Beautiful, intricate football from CF Montreal. They are flying! Yakov with the goal! It's lovely little passing patterns, we've seen them in moments in transition, but that extra little backheel from Joseph Martinez is just class. The ball comes in from Piet, Yankov turns so well here, the little one-two, but that backheel from Joseph Martinez is just beautiful. So unselfish, with eyes in the back of his head, Yankov continues his run and then picks out that back corner. Brady helpless, points over to his teammate, but that combination play between these... So, as we said, just seven minutes remaining. Gutierrez scores! Now then, now Costa's ball in! Here's Acosta again, hanging ball in Tehran! Buzz! Alley for Chicago, fire! ...to get, and what a time to get it for Kuipers who stays alive in the box! It just slips out... Here comes Chicago, one more time! Acosta forwards! The city plays its part in a... That Chicago wind, with some home cooking there... ...to the neck, Sirwa can't track it, comes off his fingertips. You can believe it, but the Chicago Fire faithful, happy to see it, their new signing, the free agent... ...wrong decision there trying to play in Campana in behind. Again, D.C. coming forward quickly, Herrera... ...finds Pirani, leaves for Kleech... ...in to throw, good ball, Jared's drive! Oh, what a goal! His first for D.C. United is spectacular! D.C. takes the lead 1-0! ...to say we're going to be a little bit better in possession. Clean, definitive touches, but direct. First big chance for Miami today, and Alex Bono keeps it with a clean sheet for D.C. ...comes up huge, but it's Redondo keeping the play alive. Busquets, Ruiz, how often have we said since he's come into Major League Soccer... ...if it hits the left hamstring or the left hand, but then immediately the other way. How about the two center forwards for Inter-Miami? Campana in the first half, Suarez in the second. 2-1. Pressure at Kleech, here he comes, brace. Suarez is patient. Still there maybe for Suarez! D.C. All this is on Diego Gomez. I told you the physical capacity for 90 minutes is relentless. You can see why all the scouts around the world are salivating at his prospects. But father time may be not answered at some point. But for Luis Suarez, class is permanent. Time and time again, when everything is against him, he chips the goalkeeper. He chips the goalkeeper and puts the nail in the coffin of D.C. United on the road for Inter-Miami. 3-1 in the nation's capital for the team in pink. Ruiz-Diaz! Still got it! 65th career goal in MLS All in Seattle. One set over the Sounders. He's got 78 goals in all competitions and he opens up his account with that. Just a filthy little dink. Vines and Mihaljevic to address this ball here in the 87th time running short. Mihaljevic up! Oh, it's not through! Punches it in! Spectacular free kick from Mihaljevic. You love to give him half a goal, but he is happy to be involved in the equalizer. Kevin Cabral. Right place, right time. 1-1. But the free kick, the step. Georgie Mihaljevic, everybody in an onside position. Kisses the inside of the post. That was one of the things that John Herman spoke to us about, is just building trust within this team. But first and foremost, when they build that trust, this is going to be a long ball played over the top. And it could be a chance here for Marshall Ruddy. Grabbed the keeper and he opens the scoring! This incredible start to this Toronto FC season continues. It's the 19-year-old, Jakeel Marshall Ruddy, who opens the scoring for TFC. Excellent first touch. No urgency to get pressure on the long ball. Takes a bounce, but look at that first touch. Second touch to be able to get it out from underneath. To the left of Fernandez, to the right of Sante Rodriguez. Rodriguez over the wall and into the fence from Sante Rodriguez! We're missing a guilt-edge chance that draws New York City level. When you're struggling to convert in the run of play, set pieces can be a great equalizer. And Sante Rodriguez just steps up, gets all of this. The whip, the bend, the pace. Here's the interesting thing, because we're talking about Toronto FC trying to play out. Putting themselves under pressure. You see New York City now build again. Fernandez, outside of the boot. It's a decent ball and it's deep! And Fernandez, we talk about his left foot. He says, here we go. Outside has made good contact on this. They've done a decent job so far. Amundsen. It's gone for Yeboah again. Second time tonight. Reyes stretching to keep it in. And another for Coutinho! Ole Miss could have played this ball in behind. And doesn't Amundsen put it right into stride of Yeboah. Who does so well just to pull it. P.O.I. hold this run. And at the last second, he cuts inside, he breaks the line. But he needs somebody middle of the frame. And that's where this man has popped up. Coutinho and in as the ball squares him. And for him, that is easy pickings. Top in. Two unbeaten sides going head to head here. And two changes on the way for the Red Bulls. Who've got Coutinho. Setting up Russell Rowe. Scored from distance last week. Scores again! Confidence on show. From champions. Pick up the set, releases it. Perfect weight on the ball for Russell Rowe. For stride. He's got champions. And that led to this corner. Soloski making that near post run. From Benji Kikanovic. After four minutes. And lost at the death. He got a corner here. And in! The opener comes off a set piece. And Costa cashes in for San Jose. The Brazilian fullback gives the Quakes the lead. After ten minutes. It's what they deserve. And Luchin Gonzalez said we have to love set pieces. That is whipped into a great area. Corner number two. Dogs it home! The first 20 minutes. Corner set pieces. This is a great ball whipped into the area where goals are scored. There's Danny Rossero. Not much opposition to it. You know how a football game goes. It swings back and forth. Good ball that is. Tommy carved it to Polito. Shallowly. Patterns. Running it wide for Russell. Oh, nice. A one-two with Davis. And there's the first forward. Who's fruitful for sporting Kansas City. 2-1. His first goal. We're going to take this from right early. Great ball there. Eric Tommy. Then look at the passes. It's Shallowly getting a turn. Gets it out. Look at Jake Davis' run. We call that pattern of play. He gets inside. A little one-two here. Then he cuts it back. Area where goals are scored. There's Alan Polito. Making it 2-1. What great football move. Champagne football from sporting Kansas City there. Ending in Alan Polito's first goal of the season. The comeback player of the year. Coming off knee surgery in 2022. Making it 2-1. What great football move. Champagne football. Aggressiveness is a pillar of their football philosophy. Washington. Aim for it. Ah! Exactly! Big center forward. But this is. Boyd. Moore. Towards the back. Post. Wow! Now it's real. Old draft. Old contestants. And that is as easy as it gets. From the right-hand side. It starts with Tyler Boyd. Spraying it out to Shaq Moore. And Shaq Moore just lifts this up. But look at how Alex Muehl climbs up over the ladder. Played on the left for Christian Lacombe until last season. Udenen. To Arnfield. Too high for Arnfield. Ajumma. Lays it off for Udenen. Udenen to the. Yeah! Charlotte FC! Climbs to the lead in Nashville! Exactly what you're supposed to do in this moment. You get your first touch out of your feet. Right here. And a goal across the goal. There's nothing that Joe Williams can do. You have to give the other a lot of credit. Excellent delivery. Awkward here. It falls for Lund! Lunds are off and running. And it's the first goal of the Eric Ramsey era. And it's an early 1-0 lead over the reigning Western Conference champions. Hugo Luis doesn't come off his line. You can see he thought about it for a second there. Murillo with an awkward header. Back into traffic. Oluwaseyi a little flat-footed. And Stregopani laid that ball back to him. Awkward here. Hwanghwane is going to get on the end of this one. And that might just do it. Disastrous mistake from LAFC. And a punctual finish from Bongi Hwanghwane. His second goal in his many games. And it looks like it's going to be three points in the debut of their new head coach, Eric Ramsey. You've got to find a way to put it away. And Aaron Ball back. Segura just bounces over his leg. And Hwanghwane uses the pace to get him behind. To get into the attacking third for this Houston side. Lvovcik again. Gregic. Dorsey. Basi. Karaskia. Outside of the boot. He's looking for Ibrahim. It was broken up by Moskow. It falls right to Ibrahim who smashes it into the back of the net. The Houston Dynamo have gone in front in the 43rd minute. Aliyu Ibrahim. And a mistake in conversation between Krepo and Mosquera to take the breadlock. They can sense it now, Vancouver. The chances they're creating. And Gould's finding them little areas. He's just, because he's not pushed up so high, he just times his run perfectly. Spooned forward by Pedro Vitte. Good combination play. Laborda. Brian White. Come back. Oh, and it's passed into the net. It is a goal for Laborda. The center back joins the attack. And it's Vancouver away with the opening goal of the game. Gould's running. Oh, take a bow, my friend. Gould again makes that run. It draws the attention a little over. And it's a little side. On the restart. The free kick. Now the ball pushed forward by Ryan Gould. He kill. Help coming over from Paul Arreola. Dangerous cross. And it's another goal for Vancouver. Back-to-back very quickly. A dangerous ball is whipped in. And finished by the outstanding goal scorer, Brian White. Well, he looks shell-shocked, the keeper. But what a delivery. He comes back on his right foot. He whips it in with pace. White's already made a run. He's already there. Moose was supposed to be picking up. He's a center forward. He switched off. They have a center forward. Particularly with this surface as well, if it skips up. Standing over it. Game's gone into the 40th minute. Just a short run-up on the delivery. Clipped in by Fededa. And he's looking for Moose. And he finds him. And Legette back there as well. And it ends up being Legette who heads it home for FC Dallas. And before halftime, FC Dallas has pulled one back. We've prepared these guys. Just opens his body around. Closes it up. And Legette just heads that. Cushions that into the back of the net. Daniel Gosdok lining up to the spot. Trying to line up his second goal of 2024. He had one in the run of play. Late against Chicago. And he's got one here in Austin, Texas. All the breaks going the Union's way. And inside the opening quarter of an hour, it's the Union who jump out in front first. Effort of the team to earn that penalty. And you see him step up there full of confidence. Ten minutes gone in half number two. Wolf in a pocket of space. Waits for Jimenez who just stepped on. Looking to dump one in. He does. Great ball to the back post. And we're tied 1-1. Diego reversed. Kids game on Austin. And you look at how many players ran directly over to Jimenez. The one player that can do it. Looks like it takes a little bit of a deflection there. Jimenez again setting up that first touch and putting it into a dangerous space. Wolf gets in behind. Service out top. Backside. Chance to make it two. He started on the right. Scoring from the left. Just like that. Austin FC take a 2-1 lead. On to the right side. You move Gallagher to the left side. And look at his ball from. Oh, Wolf just cuts that across. Ring gets a little touch. And what would have been a left-footed player on the left-hand side is now a right-footed player. And he's able to put his body around that with the right foot. And redirect that with all the pace to the back post. A phenomenal goal. And a phenomenal response. From this Austin FC side here at home in the second half. Austin FC back in their own half. From the Union. Martinez. High boot, but he got away with it. Waiting for the overlap from Hariel. Well-timed on the run. Numbers inside the area. Into the back post. And it's 2-2. Oh, ah. Finds the back of the net. And the Union have equalized. Numbers in the box. And Philadelphia make it pay off. That wide of the danger. You see that touch fall right to the feet. He was in a very confident mood in our calls during the week. What do you say? Bet on me for goals this week. Pagundes. Lovely play. Halday inside the area. Halday tries to pull it back. Great opportunity. Jovovich scores. Fourth straight game to start the season. Dejan Jovovich is red hot right now. LA Galaxy with the perfect start. And it starts way back in their own end. The way they change the point of attack. But I want you to keep an eye at the top of the 18. Watch Dejan Jovovich's movement. That little subtle check back. John McCarthy, another former teammate of yours. Came through at Philadelphia Union initially. And a giveaway again. This time it's Ricky Pooch. Chats in on goal. And this time, St. Louis City make no mistake. Ostrakh right down the middle. And the frustration on Greg Vanney is there for all to see. A real giveaway. And St. Louis City respond. What was it? It's about picking your moments. You have triggers that you always are looking for. And as soon as you see that negative pass from the Galaxy, that's the trigger for St. Louis. And the sense of confidence here in St. Louis City going forward. Vasilev. Picked a strike on. Vasilev had that little opportunity. That little window. But just hesitates. Delgado. Ball in behind. Paintsil. You're not going to catch him. Paintsil scores. Devastating from LA Galaxy. Delgado with an imperfect ball in behind. And Joseph Paintsil. The new wing wizard of Carson. What Joseph Paintsil has brought to this team is a threat in behind. Attacking space. That means we are going to have two up front. A dinner. And right in there. Right. Involved as an option at that far post. Gets his head to it. And the right kick is in. Stunning finish. We're level again. And impacts the game. Just cheating on that back post. Does what? Put the ball back into a dangerous area. And a center back? Whoa. A center back? Joaquin Nilsson with the acrobatics. The overhead kick. To find the back post. You talk about an equalizer. A leveler. Set piece. A corner kick is exactly how St. Louis got themselves back in this game. Similar set up. A dinner. And going towards that far post again. McCarthy punches it. It's in. The goalkeeper furious at the whistle. But St. Louis City have stolen it up to death. And it's again a set piece that has given them the lead. St. Louis doing a good job. Look how many buddies they have in and around the goalkeeper. You have one in front of him. You have two behind him. And it's Heber who goes up with the challenge. I think that might be an own goal. It is an own goal. John McCarthy comes out. Good whip ball across the box. Threatening Berkey to come out and try to get a hand on it. Brueggemann. In the area. All the way through it is. Alexi. Enough to be denied. We're level again. With Maya Yoshida getting the equalizer. I love his movement off the ball. He starts from a little bit deeper. And then just makes that darting run to the near post. To get in beyond the defenders of St. Louis. Acosta into the game. And now entrusted with the corners. This ball. Far post is. And it. Oh, what a stop by Ramos. He got it. To make the stop. Still alive ball. Top of the 18. And they're saying this ball crossed the line. Cincinnati is celebrating a goal. Gets himself in a huge mess. And you can see from that angle. It does look as though it's clearly. From a terrific spot on the field. Oriano. Is the other option here. But this is all Lucio Acosta. Goal. On the free kick. He kept this ball low. Oh, the MVP has made the entrance. And he has Cincinnati now up by two. They don't have a play behind the wall. We see it so often where teams say. We're going to have a play a line behind the wall. And we can jump. New England don't do that. Able to link with Santos. Brioni. With a loose ball. Giacomo Brioni. Fires. Scores. New England back in business. Brioni with goals in consecutive games. Game on at Foxborough. It's two to one. You just see here. They don't do a good job of holding on to the ball. So what they do here is. Santos. He just plays an awful ball. That means then that Cincinnati. They're out of position. Now Atlanta. Giacomo. Into space. For Lobjanice. Golese off his line. Lobjanice. Vintage. From one end. To the other. Just like that. Atlanta opens the scoring. It's sabbatime. At Mercedes-Benz Stadium. One nil. And Orlando City's Achilles heel this year. Giving up a ton of goals. Thirteen goals in all competitions. Sabba Lobjanice. To Brooks Lennon. Who's behind Santos. Lennon cutting it back. Oh. Santos right down. Giacomo. Gaze. It's one chance. And a goal scorer. Doubles his lead. Two. Again. Layoff from Lennon is at the right pace. For his son of Ford. To put his laces. Right through it.
