Sporting Kansas City central defender Ike Opara is getting rave reviews in the American media following his spectacular strike against LA Galaxy in Major League Soccer on Saturday.
Sporting KC picked up a 2-1 road win over LA Galaxy at the Stubhub Center in California, with the former United States U23 international netting his second goal in the league in the 35th minute.
