Against the LA Galaxy midfielder Carlos Rivas nearly had two mind-blowing goals.
In the 5th minute, a Rivas free kick bounced off the ground and ricocheted off both goal posts. In the 18th minute, Rivas kicked a curler from outside the penalty box that Galaxy’s goalkeeper barely tipped, causing the ball to bounce of the inside of the right cross bar. The near goals were spectacular, putting Orlando City fans on their feet and chanting his name.
“It makes me extremely happy because they used to do the same thing in Colombia, but never
with the same excitement as they do here, “Rivas responded to the chants.
