Opening night of the 2015 Audi MLS Cup Playoffs had more than its fair share of beautiful goals.
But none of the stunners had as big of an impact as Erik Friberg's strike.
The Seattle Sounders midfielder won Wednesday's Knockout Round game against the LA Galaxy with an absolute golazo, rocketing home a left-footed volley from just outside the box following two poor clearance attempts from LA defenders. Now you can take a whole new look at the killer finish, with LEVYFilms -- who have been putting together top-notch videos with the Sounders for the past several years -- releasing a gorgeous slow-motion shot of the strike on Thursday.
The video is something to behold. The way the various bodies moving towards and away from the ball, the way Friberg makes perfect contact, and the way the net...well, you just need to watch it to find out.
