Sporting Kansas City's Ike Opara completes unthinkable bicycle kick

It’s not every day that soccer fans get to witness a goal off of a bicycle kick. But today was a fortunate exception.

During a matchup against the LA Galaxy on Saturday night, Sporting Kansas City’s Ike Opara scored on a miraculous bicycle kick to put his team ahead 2-0.

Does it get any better than that? From tracking the ball to the kick itself, everything about the play was perfect. Oh yeah- In case you were wondering, Opara isn’t a striker.

He’s a defender.

Players around the league caught the goal and shared their thoughts on Twitter.

Even SKC responded with a hilarious tweet of their own.

The marker proved to be the difference maker as LA went on to score in the 77^th minute.

Don’t be surprised if this one is on every top-ten goals of the year list at the season’s end.
