2nd place, Aidan Morris (31.5%) – Columbus Crew’s homegrown midfielder hit a rocket from distance for the 87th-minute equalizer in a 1-1 draw against D.C. United.
3rd place, Sebastián Driussi (14.8%) – No one struck later than Driussi, as the Argentine scored the decisive goal in Austin FC’s wild 4-3 victory over the San Jose Earthquakes with the outside of his right foot in the 101st minute.
4th place, Aliyu Ibrahim (13.5%) – The Nigerian forward capitalized on a defensive miscue to tuck the ball into the top corner from the edge of the 18-yard box in Houston Dynamo FC’s 2-1 loss at Chicago Fire FC.
