LA Galaxy's Gyasi Zardes, Oscar Sorto engage in Mortal Kombat battle on Vine | THE SIDELINE

Gyasi Zardes, LA Galaxy

First things first, Gyasi Zardes is awesome, and he knows it. The 21-year old Hawthorne, Calif., native was signed by the LA Galaxy after scoring 33 goals in 37 collegiate games for CSU Bakersfield in 2011 and 2012.


Down two goals late on Saturday in Vancouver, Zardes scored his first professional goal to give his side a fighting chance in the waning moments of the Whitecaps' 3-1 victory. Zardes then chose to spend his Wednesday afternoon celebrating the milestone in a way like no MLS-er to ever come before him, or likely to follow.


Zardes and fellow Galaxy Homegrown player Oscar Sorto unleashed the best Vine created by an MLS-er to date. For any old school Mortal Kombat fans out there, Gyasi's got you covered:

It's mesmerizing to watch and listen to over and over again. Undoubtedly, Gyasi found the right combo to pull off his Fatality move against Oscar.
