David Villa’s volleyed strike vs. Chicago nominated for MLS Goal of the Week

Give it up to your man, who balanced a trigonometric equation to score his fourteenth goal of the season for New York City FC on Saturday vs. Chicago.

Even if David Villa doesn’t win MLS Goal of the Week this time around, he and Jonathan Lewis (whose assist was every bit as spicy as the finish) deserve, I dunno, some free Chipotle at least.

El Guaje’s smashing performance keyed NYCFC to a spirited 2-1 victory despite playing a man down for the vast majority of the game, and leapfrogged him past Sebastian Giovinco into his rightful first-place spot in the Audi Player Index rankings.
