Goal of the Matchday

Orlando City's Julio Baptista wins AT&T Goal of the Week with laser volley

It looked to be a magnificent game-winner for Orlando City SC after a tough week, but the celebration was not to be. 


Julio Baptista scored a magnificent volley to give Orlando City a 2-1 lead in the 90th minute but Shea Salinas gave the San Jose Earthquakes an equalizer in stoppage time. However, Baptista's goal has taken AT&T Goal of the Week honors for Week 15.


The Beast took down a cross in the box and volleyed it home past David Bingham after it popped off of the turf. It was his second goal since joining the Lions back in March.


Baptista garnered 76 percent of the vote in the finals of the Goal of the Week bracket against New York City FC's Andrea Pirlo. Hedefeated New England Revolution defender London Woodberry and David Villa in the earlier rounds.
