Former Barcelona striker David Villa scored a stunning lob to help New York City FC to a 2-0 victory over Philadelphia Union.
The 35-year-old delivered the clincher with his chip in the 90th minute in front of a crowd of 16,000 at Talen Energy Stadium in Chester, Pennsylvania.
The reigning MLS MVP lobbed his perfect shot over the head of Union goalkeeper Andre Blake from just inside his own half.
The Spanish national team's record goalscorer has now scored four goals in six games in 2017.
"Everybody told me congratulations," Villa said. "We are happy because the moment of the goal was good for the team.
"We wanted to win the game, we were 1-0, but in some situations the other team can score, and with this goal, the game was won."
Villa's coach Patrick Vieira said: "It was fantastic, it was a good finish, and I think it takes a special player to score a special goal."
Jack Harrison scored off a pretty setup from Ronald Matarrita for the only other goal of the contest.
The hapless Union entered the weekend as one of only two remaining winless MLS teams, along with the Montreal Impact. Philadelphia have lost four straight games this season and have not won in 13 matches, a streak dating back to last season.
Elsewhere, Fredy Montero scored twice against his former team to help the Vancouver Whitecaps beat the Seattle Sounders 2-1 in Major League Soccer on Friday night while Jahmir Hyka scored in the fourth minute of second-half stoppage time to earn San Jose a 1-1 draw with FC Dallas.
