Sporting KC’s Ike Opara scores incredible bicycle kick goal

Sporting Kansas City defender Ike Opara won’t stop talking about this goal anytime soon.

Opara secured the club’s highlight-reel goal of 2017 in the first half Saturday against the LA Galaxy — a form of a bicycle kick that hopped over keeper Clement Diop for Sporting Kansas City’s second goal of the evening in Los Angeles.
