Winning A MLS Playoff Game By Embarrassing A Goalie With A Panenka PK Is As Filthy As It Gets

This is downright filth. It's one thing to hit the game-winning PK in a playoff game, it's another to step up and embarrass the goalie with a panenka. I legit chuckled when the goalie tried reaching up from the ground. He realized he was fucked but still thought he had a chance. It somehow made it worse for him. You can't save a PK from your ass man. Oh not to mention the dude who scored this is 20-years old. Pretty good! 

We can debate deciding games on PKs. It's entertaining as hell but I hate it as a soccer fan. Play 120 minutes only to have 5 PKs to decide who moves on? Woof. At least play golden goal so people don't sit back. Plus we're talking playoffs here. At least give me a goal to move on, not the penalty kicks. But this is as sick as possible when it comes to penalty kicks. 

We don't end basketball games on a free throw contest. We don't playoff hockey games with a shootout. We don't do a field goal contest for football. For the love of God stop having important soccer matches end with a PK. PK's barely happen in games! 

All that said, I can't stop watching this goal. Dude was ready to celebrate basically the moment he connected with the ball. He knew had the goalie faked out. He knew it was perfect. He might as well started going crazy right then and there. A new standard for game-winning PKs.
