A total of 28 goals were scored in week two of the Major League Soccer season. Here’s a look back at all the goals scored.
Chicago Fire vs. Real Salt Lake
Goal: Nemanja Nikolic (11th minute)
Play until the whistle blows is the story behind this goal, as Nikolic gets in behind the defense to record his first of the season. After first glance, it appears he is miles offsides, but a close-up replay shows otherwise.
First goal of the weekend. First goal for Nikolic in @ChicagoFire red. #CHIvRSL https://t.co/VWgTfPwTVu

Goal: Arturo Alvarez (15th minute)
Alvarez cuts into the middle fantastically and then gets a deflection to go his way, as the Chicago Fire scored two goals in less than five minutes to put Real Salt Lake in trouble early.
Make it two for @ChicagoFire! #CHIvRSL https://t.co/KZ36hhBDmJ

Goal: C.J. Sapong (73rd minute)
A nice feed from Fabian Herbers puts Sapong in alone and the forward makes no mistake with his finish.
Just like that, it's 2-2! @BigAfrika88 does it for @PhilaUnion! #PHIvTOR https://t.co/StqIQ9OGOy
