Goal of the Week

Back heel trumps the field as Vancouver Whitecaps Cristian Techera takes AT&T Goal of the Week

Cristian Techera - Week 25 Goal of the Week winner

Back heels trump all. That the lesson this week in AT&T Goal of the Week voting.


Despite Sebastian Giovinco's brilliant free kick and Graham Zusi's curling wonder, Vancouver attacker Cristian Techera took the AT&T Goal of the Week honors in Week 25 for a back-heel finish that send the Whitecaps to victory against FC Dallas.


Giovinco finished second with 24.58 percent of the vote for a free-kick goal that left Orlando City goalkeeper Tally Hall in no-man's land, while Zusi came in third after cutting inside for long-distance goal that will go on his personal highlight reel.


1. Cristian Techera (VAN) - 34.23%
2. Sebastian Giovinco (TOR) - 24.58%
3. Graham Zusi (SKC) - 20.40%
4. Chris Wondolowski (SJ) - 14.81%
5. Kwadwo Poku (NYC) - 5.98%
