Fall Week 5: Midfield Press Goal Of The Week

Welcome to Midfield Press’ Goal of the Week! After each week of play, the writers of MP will come together to nominate and deliberate on the week’s most impressive goals.

#3: Albert Watson (FC Edmonton vs. Indy Eleven)
The Eddies’ captain certainly rose to the occasion to connect onto the FC Edmonton corner kick for the goal.

#2: Ibson (Jacksonville Armada vs. Minnesota United FC)
The Jacksonville keeper’s exasperated face says it all, “How the hell did that shot get through all those legs?” Despite the lucky deflection, Ibson’s shot was well-taken through traffic.

And the winner is…

#1: Hunter Freeman (New York Cosmos vs. Minnesota United FC)
After a great first touch on a field switch pass, Freeman just sends an absolute screamer off the half volley into the upper ninety for this week’s Goal of the Week.
