AT&T Goal of the Year: Jefferson Savarino

On May 24, RSL welcomed defending MLS Cup Champion Atlanta United to Rio Tinto Stadium and with the match deadlocked at a goal apiece through 90 minutes, Jefferson Savarino decided to make the match his own. In the 94th minute, Savarino took on two defenders some 25 yards from goal to create space for a shot near the top of the box. The Venezuelan playmaker successfully evaded those two defenders before sending a rocket of a shot into the far top corner of the net, delivering the full three points all the while sending the RSL faithful into pandemonium.
