Sebastian Giovinco's dominance of MLS continues unabated.
The pint-sized Italian got Toronto FC back into Saturday's match against the Vancouver Whitecaps with a stunning tally in the 37th minute, cutting Vancouver's lead in half and making some history in the process.
The goal, Giovinco's 29th since his move to North America, puts him atop Toronto FC's all-time league scoring chart, as the former Juventus man surpassed Dwayne De Rosario's previous mark - and needed only 43 matches to do so.
Not satisfied with turning Vancouver's central defenders inside-out, Giovinco scored the 30th league goal of his career in the second half, slotting home a low strike after a wonderful run, and pass, from Michael Bradley.
