10. Andrea Pirlo vs Philadelphia Union
June 18, 2016 perfect free kick, first goal with the club
Andrea Pirlo has always been hailed as a free kick expert– his expertise in dead ball situations made him a legend in Europe. On June 18th, he showed why, scoring his first-ever MLS goal with a brilliant free kick against a rival team. This matchup against the Union marked the first time all three of NYCFC’s designated players (David Villa, Frank Lampard, and Pirlo) scored in the same game.
Worth the wait.@Pirlo_official puts away his first in MLS to put @NYCFC up 3-0. #NYCvPHI https://t.co/smlTmb4Y1C
