Difference makers show up when their team needs them and that is exactly what Zlatan Ibrahimovic did on Sunday night in Los Angeles. The star signing recorded a thrilling hat-trick to inspire the LA Galaxy to a 4-3 victory over visiting Orlando City.
The Swedish striker helped spur on a comeback after LA had gone down 3-2 in the 54th minute. Two goals in the span of four minutes solidified his role at the club as a playmaker and gave the Galaxy a massive three points.
For Orlando, a third consecutive league defeat has cast another shadow on what has been a frustrating year.
