MLS bangers are back! Capita nets stunning strike

SKC (1)

New Major League Soccer fans, take notice. This is a league of bangers.

The latest example came in the return from the 2026 FIFA World Cup pause in a rivalry showdown between St. Louis CITY SC and Sporting Kansas City. 

And it was delivered by Capita Capemba. The 24-year-old Angolan international settled a blocked Dejan Joveljić shot and went top bins, firing inside the far post.

The goal pulled Sporting Kansas City back a goal after Sang Bin Jeong and Marcel Hartel scored eight minutes apart to give the hosts a two-goal lead. 

It was Capita's second goal for Sporting after arriving from Polish top-flight side Radomiak Radom in March.

Unfortunately for Capita and his SKC teammates, St. Louis were able to hold off their rivals, with a late penalty-kick goal by Eduard Löwen securing the 3-2 win.
