The MLS Cup Playoffs have finally hit their stride in the last few days with some stunning results and plenty of drama. But it wouldn't be MLS without some superb goals to look back on as well.
Let's take a look at some of the best strikes in the playoffs so far.
The man is a walking highlight reel, and he put on another show against NYCFC in the second game of their Eastern Conference showdown earlier this week.
First the nutmeg, then the finish!
What a strike from Orellano! š„ @fccincinnati cut the deficit to one goal. // Audi #MLSCupPlayoffsĀ āĀ
The Galaxy were rampant in the opening round against Colorado, and frankly there were three or four candidates to make it in this list, butĀ Joseph Paintsil's strike in the dying seconds of the first-half against the Rapids the other night was the best of the bunch.
We all watched the moment, and it provided goosebumps for everybody outside of Miami. Last-gasp game winning goals aren't always pretty, but this one certainly was.
The LAFC-Vancouver series may just be the best of lot in the opening round of the playoffs, and we've got an exciting third game just on the horizon. But back in game one, Critstian Olivera pulled off a superb strike from an acute angle.
It's not often a one of the BarƧa boys in Miami makes this list and it isn't Leo Messi or Luis SuƔrez, but Jordi Alba's stunner to beat Atlanta in game one was too good to ignore.
