The Major League Soccer All-Star game is creeping up, but the general player pool still put on a show this weekend when it comes to goals.
Here are the top five strikes from the weekend.
5. Martín Ojeda vs New England
It might not be the most beautiful goal, but there's something special about a bar-down moment in football. Martín Ojeda's second of the night to seal his brace and win it for Orlando, all with a bit of style, earns a nod on our list.
A strike to claim three points on the road. ⚡️

4. Maya Yoshida vs LAFC
What a game El Trafico was! Being down 2-0 against your bitter rivals doesn't give you much hope. But two goals from Gabriel Pec and then a major captain moment from Maya Yoshida at the death turned things 3-3.
This simply, because of the timeliness and value, enters at number four.

3. Luca Orellano vs Real Salt Lake
Big game players step up when the team needs it most, and that can really be said for Luca Orellano.
Sitting deadlocked against Real Salt Lake with only three minutes to go, the 25-year-old winger pulled off something special from outside the box with a thunderbolt left-footed finish.
Take a bow, Luca Orellano 😱😱

2. Pedro de la Vega vs San Jose
How can we discuss game-changing moments and not mention this one?
Pedro del la Vega said, 'Fine, I'll do it myself' when we ran into space, found his perfect position right outside the top of the box, and sent an absolute rocket home for the winner.
ARE YOU KIDDING?! 🔥

1. Jordi Alba vs NYRB
Finally, we move to the men who wear pink. Inter Miami pulled out the best goal of the round after two different talents partnered up for something exquisite.
It was prime-Barcelona in modern-day 2025. An inch-perfect pass from Lionel Messi found Jordi Alba running on the wing, and he entered the box before blasting home.
All the New York Red Bulls could do was watch.
A perfect pass if we've ever seen one. 😍
