Zlatan Ibrahimovic moved within a goal of the Golden Boot presented by Audi lead and helped lift the LA Galaxy into third place in the Western Conference following a 2-1 win over the Montreal Impact Saturday night at Dignity Health Sports Complex.
Ibrahimovic pulled within a goal of Golden Boot presented by Audi leader Carlos Vela with the opening goal in the 31st minute.
Cristian Pavon started the sequence with chasing down a ball played long and cutting it back from the endline. Jonathan dos Santos ran onto it and fired a shot toward the net that first caromed off Uriel Antuna and then Ibrahimovic, who turned and fired in his 27th goal of the season from 8 yards out.
