He added,

“Kamara jumped in the duel. I go behind as a striker, and I saw the goalkeeper went out and yeah, just put it over him. I was thinking to save strength because I don’t know how much I would make it, so let’s shoot in one touch, I said. And it went in.”

When he was asked about his recovering knee, he told,

“Ok. I was not worried. … It’s difficult to describe the feeling after you score a goal like that. I think I heard, ‘We want Zlatan! We want Zlatan!’ And I gave them Zlatan.”

The 36-year-old veteran striker arrived in Los Angeles just 48 hours before the match. As he left EPL giant, Manchester United a week ago to complete the signing for LA Galaxy.

At the time of signing, he also told that David Beckham convinced him to join the MLS club. Furthermore, he also said that he will set out to “conquer the US” as he did in Europe, after his transfer to LA Galaxy.
