Joe Gyau’s 90th minute equalizer from outside the box has been nominated for USL Championship Goal of the Week

Gyau’s goal, his second with the club since joining in February 2024, came in the dying moments of the game. The Lights went all in looking for an equalizer, which they finally scored in the last minute of regulation time. Rory O’Driscoll found an unmarked Joe Gyau at the back post, who cut in and shot a beautiful curling effort from outside the area that soared above New Mexico goalkeeper Alexandros Tambakis into the top corner.
