New York Red Bulls star Bradley Wright-Phillips is inching closer to capturing his second career MLS Golden Boot award.
The 31-year-old, who also took home the honor when he found the net 27 times in 2014, opened up a two-goal lead over nearest challenger David Villa when he gave his side a 1-0 lead over Philadelphia, scori a clever goal in the 26th minute Sunday.
Why take passes from teammates when you can lob the goalkeeper and pick up the loose ball on your own?
