Published: June 25, 2017
Sporting Kansas City central defender Ike Opara is getting rave reviews in the American media following his spectacular strike against LA Galaxy in Major League Soccer on Saturday.
Sporting KC picked up a 2-1 road win over LA Galaxy at the Stubhub Center in California, with the former United States U23 international netting his second goal in the league in the 35th minute.
Goalkeeper Diop charged off his line when he had no chance of beating Opara to the ball, and the central defender produced a stunning bicycle kick.
Apart from the defender's two goals in the American top division, he also found the net in Sporting KC's 4-0 rout of Minnesota United in the US Open Cup on June 15.
Ike Opara made his 16th appearance of the season against LA Galaxy.
