A cool thing about soccer? Sometimes you can make something out of nothing.

Colorado was cruising towards it’s 17th defeat of the season Saturday night. After a first 60 minutes in which NYCFC dominated possession and had a 1-0 lead off of many great scoring opportunities. Dominique Badji got a ball off the throw-in, and just took it took the house.

Here he leaves substitutes James Sands and David Villa in the dust, then slips his shot in between defenders Frederic Brilliant and RJ Allen, beating Sean Johnson on the far post with a deadly left foot for his 8th goal of the season.
