The club's 2012 MVP and Golden Boot winner Chris Rolfe's stunning outside of the foot poke from distance on July 28 at San Jose takes on veteran midfielder Pavel Pardo's impressive free kick from July 14 vs. Vancouver. 

Rolfe's entry is one of three (tied with Alex for most in the tournament) while Pardo's lone goal of the 2012 campaign is also his lone entry in the competition.
