Puddle's Goal of the Weekend: Jose Mari Sinks Vancouver

Colorado's Jose Mari scored two goals late on to give the Rapids 3 points.

It was another eventful weekend in Major League Soccer, with goals raining down everywhere, except at Sporting Park.  The league gave us many great goals to spotlight this week, including EIGHT between Portland and Seattle, but I'm going to head north of the border for this week's best.

The Vancouver Whitecaps seemed to have things well in hand heading into the late stages of their match with the Colorado Rapids.  They were leading 1-0 in the 77th minute when Matias Laba was handed a second yellow card for a rather silly handball offense.  The Rapids jumped at the chance, and their defensive midfielder, Jose Mari, scored this beauty just two minutes later.  Of course, then just two minutes after the goal in the video, Mari scored another to secure the 1-2 win for the visiting side.
