One year after scoring twice to lead the Galaxy in an epic 4-3 comeback against LAFC during his Major League Soccer debut, Zlatan Ibrahimovic again recorded a brace to hand his team victory.
Ibrahimovic drew and converted penalty kicks in the 33rd and 65th minutes of Sunday’s match against the Portland Timbers,who lost 2-1 to the Galaxy. The Timbers’ lone goal came from Jeremy Ebobisse in the 44th minute. Watch a replay of Ibra’s game-winner above. His first penalty and a rocket of a shot that hit the post can be seen below.
