Though it was a Julian Green penalty that opened third place Greuther Fürth's 2-1 Sunday win, we all know what a spot kick looks like. Instead let's celebrate what ordinarily would be just another late consolation strike. You see, young Leon Flach pulled that one back in the waning moments to become the fifth American to score for St. Pauli (joining Michael Mason, Cory Gibbs, Fafà Picault and Ian Joy). And he did it with a bona fide shark with a firggin' laser beam on its head. See for yourself from two angles. That thing had some sassy sweeeerve on it.
