Last night was the USL Cup Final between Swope Park Rangers (the reserve team for Sporting Kansas City) and New York Red Bulls II. Late in the 85th minute, with New York up 2-1 but Swope Park having just scored and wanting to capitalize on momentum, the Red Bulls launched a threatening attack to try and put the game away.
What happened next, to be honest, defies belief.

New York scored a fourth goal just moments later and a fifth in stoppage time, cruising to the trophy platform and lifting the USL Cup.
