You can have all the stars you like, but when opposition players are firing home direct from corner kicks there’s not a lot you can do.
Frank Lampard, Andrea Pirlo and David Villa all started for New York City FC in their match against FC Dallas, but they slipped to their eight defeat from 14 away games thanks to this olimpico from Brazilian defender Michel.

NYCFC goalkeeper Josh Saunders could probably have done better with the effort, which is more than you can say for the other Dallas goal – there was no stopping this Tesho Akindele strike.
Por algo Tesho Akindele fue el novato del año en 2014… Asà fue el gol con que @FCDallas abrió la cuenta. #DALvNYChttps://t.co/1AXhj1bDWN

Oh, and by the way, if you were about to call Michel’s goal a fluke, he has previous.
