The opening weekend of the MLS season saw a total of 20 goals scored in 12 matches. Both expansion clubs netted their first goals in the league and two Portland Timber’s players netted braces. Here’s a look at every goal scored in week one.
Portland vs. Minnesota
Goal: Lawrence Olum (14th minute)
The first goal of the 2017 MLS season wasn’t the prettiest of goals, as Olum tucks it in off the corner kick.
Goal: Diego Valeri (47th minute)
Sebastian Blanco serves a perfect ball into the box that is headed home by Valeri for what should be the first of many this season for the Argentine.
