It was a moment to forget for Zack Steffen and the Colorado Rapids as they conceded a humiliating opening goal in the first 10 minutes of Friday night's MLS Cup Playoff clash with the LA Galaxy.
But the USMNT keeper was bailed out by a stunning equalizer later in the half.
The Rapids came into the evening needing a victory to stay alive after a 5-0 thumping in Los Angeles in the series opener last week.
But they got off to the worst possible start when a failed Zack Steffen clearance was deflected into the Colorado goal to give the Galaxy a quick one-goal advantage.
If the Rapids do go on to lose, they will look back at that moment as one to forget, that's for sure. However, the hosts did find a leveler just 10 minutes break thanks to a superb hit from Oliver Larraz.
It was the Rapids' first playoff goal in eight years, and it was a beauty!
The ultimate swing of emotions!
