I’m going to get chided but there was no defender on him. As nice as it was, I would put it on equal footing with Darlington Nagbe’s goal from two years ago.
You can’t see it in the video, but the ball was cleared out toward a QPR player. Rafael fought his was around him before hitting that shot. You can see the player trying to recover and close him down, but too late.
Anyone notice Van Persie taking a spill into the camera pit just before Rafael shoots?
I hit one just like that with my weak foot last night
Weak foot, that well-placed, with that kind of power?
Great job. What model cleats u got?
I think we can all agree, that was a must see goal.
That was clearly not a “must see” goal…joke…just kidding, Ives! That was a laser!
Wow! What a strike. It’s magic like that goal that makes me love soccer.

Definition of a banger right there
Every time I strike the ball that sweetly, I wet in my Under Armors a little.
that could of killed someone

You’re right that was a good challenge to get the ball. There was still quite a bit of time.
I was confused when I saw the headline, because DC United had not played yet today.

Our Rafael is just as good! 😉
Looks like it misses the QPR defender’s head by inches–and lucky for him because he would be eating through a straw for a week.
I just spilled my Japanese ice cream everywhere.
Is that a euphemism or something?
What city are you in?
