Saborio nominated for Goal of the Week
Published on Mar 5, 2013 04:51PM
All in all, not a bad start to the season for Alvaro Saborio.
The Real Salt Lake striker scored twice in a 2-0 win at San Jose on Sunday. Now his first goal — a near-post finish after a wonderful ball played over the top by Joao Plata — is up for Major League Soccer’s Goal of the Week.
The other nominees are Vancouver’s Gershon Koffie, Columbus’ Federico Higuain, Montreal’s Davy Arnaud, and Portland’s Diego Valeri.
You can vote for Saborio’s goal here until 12:59 a.m. MT on Friday.
