Claudio Lopez from the Halfway Line


Claudio Lopez from the Halfway Line

Many are already calling this the goal of the year in the MLS. The Kansas City Wizard midfielder from Argentina doesn’t waste anytime, he sees the keeper is out a bit too far and hits a wonderful ball into the back of the net.

Lopez’s nickname is "El Piojo", meaning "the louse", and before joining the MLS he has spent time with Valencia, Lazio, Club America, Racing and Estudiantes. His quality shows through with this goal.

This is a bit of payback for Kansas City, as Beckham did something similar to them last year from nearly 70 yards away.
