@MLS / Twitter
Landon Donovan is back.
The LA Galaxy star scored within two minutes of coming on as a substitute in Sunday's match against Sporting Kansas City - his first goal since reversing his decision to retire.
He made his return last weekend in a 4-2 win over Orlando City, emerging from Bruce Arena's bench.
But it was in his second appearance that he delivered on the score sheet. The curling effort leveled the contest at 2-2, after Kansas City clawed back from an early deficit to take the lead.
It's also Donovan's first competitive goal in 679 days - dating back to a playoff game in November 2014.
