Consider that the Twitter equivalent to a mic drop.
The MLS season is in full swing and while LA Galaxy may be unbeaten in their last four games, their mood is not so euphoric that they’re willing to tolerate online trolling.
The Galaxy’s Mexican forward Giovani dos Santos, formerly of Spurs and Barcelona, has now scored in three games running, with the pick of his bunch proving the winner in the Galaxy’s 2-1 victory over Minnesota United on Sunday.
Romain Alessandrini sent a teasing ball into the box and dos Santos took to the air before guiding a beautiful strike home with the outside of his boot.
“You’ve got to be kidding me, Jivianni dos Santos!” roared the commentator as the ball nestled in the net.
The enthusiastic call was seized by one fan and turned into a looping 10-hour YouTube repeat of the goal, which the club’s Twitter account celebrated on Wednesday.
But there’s always one.
And this one, namely Benjamin Rose, started a beef with LA Galaxy that he almost certainly regrets.

No mercy.
No clemency.
Just a perfect bloody meme.
