Video: Chris Klein's amazing goal (SuperLiga 2007 FINAL)
—
Wednesday night's incredible stoppage time goal by Galaxy's Chris Klein --- Down 1-0 to Pachuca, with only seconds to go in final stoppage time, he makes a perfect bicycle kick into the corner of the net. --- This goal forced overtime, and since there were no further goals, a penalty kick shootout was required (Pachica won 4-3 on the PKs)

    That's awesome.  It's like a deleted scene from Shaolin Soccer.

    Chris Klein said after that he doubted that he could do 1 of those on his bed - probably right - what is so amazing is that it came only seconds away from what would have been  game over" - too bad it did only delay inevitable - but Pachuca did deserve the win.
