http://www.sportnewsmagazine.com/joao-moutinho-fires-lafc-to-dramatic-win/ ... On a brisk, late spring night in the silicon valley, Avaya Stadium served as the backdrop to a seven-goal thriller. In what was quite easily one of the season’s best matches, Los Angeles Football Club bested the San Jose Earthquakes 4-3. As the 90th minute drew near it appeared that San Jose was going to come away with the three points. However, two goals in the final seven minutes from the visitors changed the script and in Hollywood fashion, rookie Joao Moutinho fires LAFC to a dramatic win. ... ... Then, it happened. By the unlikeliest of heroes. In the 97th minute. Rookie Joao Moutinho etched his name into LAFC folklore as he struck a ball from about 17 yards out that rolled past the diving keeper and into the net. Shirt off he and his teammates celebrated what was an amazing win. Hollywood couldn’t have scripted it any better. With the last kick of the match, the kid who has had some growing pains to start the season including a red card is now a club legend.

The No. 1 pick’s shot must have had eyes. Somehow it found its way through a mass of legs. And with it, sent all three points back to LA. ... https://www.lafc.com/post/2018/06/09/facts-figures-lafcs-4-3-win-san-jose ...1 Rookie Joâo Moutinho scored his first MLS goal in the 97th minute... a match-winning goal, might I add. The No. 1 overall pick is the first LAFC draft pick in Club history to score in an MLS match. 97 Moutinho's match-winning goal scored in the 97th minute was the latest goal scored by LAFC in a match this season. ...

https://www.lafc.com/post/2018/06/07/lafc-host-sacramento-open-cup-round-16 A familiar foe will visit LAFC in the U.S. Open Cup Round of 16. Sacramento Republic FC have been drawn to face the Black & Gold at Banc of California Stadium. ... ...LAFC defeated the Republic 1-0 in Sacramento in the Club's final preseason match of 2018. Rookie Joāo Moutinho scored the lone goal in that contest. ...

EDIT: https://www.statesboroherald.com/sports/tormenta-prevails-late-over-bantams/ Marco scored 2, including the game winner... ...Tormenta quickly leveled again as a foul in the Bantams box set up Micaletto for a penalty. Edwards read the shot correctly by diving low and to his right, but Micaletto put too much pace on the ball and the shot glanced off of the keeper and into the net for another tie game. Micaletto's second strike in the 85th should have put Tormenta's mind at ease, but the side had already used all of its substitutions and a late injury to Nick Wells forced Tormenta to play out the final few minutes of regulation — plus several more in stoppage time — with just 10 men. "It was just bad luck where we had just used our final sub," Miglarese said. "I give our guys credit. We dug in and got three points on the road. We'll rest tomorrow and then start to ramp up for the weekend."...
