Portland Timbers midfielder Santiago Moreno settled the ball with his chest and turned centrally. He had received the pass near midfield and suddenly found himself in acres of space with teammates flanking him on both sides. He drove toward the penalty box and when the defenders didn't close out, he released a shot from just beyond the penalty arc.
Real Salt Lake goalkeeper David Ochoa has his post covered, but Moreno's shot ricocheted off the post, into Ochoa and back into the net.
"What a perfect moment to score his first goal," Timbers coach Giovanni Savarese said.
