#9 Kellyn Acosta (FC Dallas)
The 21-year-old midfielder is having quite a start to the season, this match-winning goal finds the bottom corner, as Acosta shows great composure in the box to dispatch this one into the net.
The kid's good, folks.@KellynAcosta with a great touch + finish. 2-1. #LAvDAL https://t.co/lsLwyfau7A

#8 David Accam (Chicago Fire)
Accam scores this equaliser to help the Fire earn a point on the road. The forward’s quickness and skill is too much for the Columbus Crew defense.
Allll square in Columbus. @iamdavidaccam with a cool finish! #CLBvCHI https://t.co/k1f7TXjTk7

Adi makes no mistake with this opportunity, the Nigerian forward may just be in store for a career season in the goal scoring department.

A second half brace is completed by Adi with this nice run through the defense, he maneuvers his way past the defender and puts it past the keeper with a cool and composed finish.
