Watch Joseph Paintsil’s first MLS goal in LA Galaxy-San Jose Earthquakes game

Ghanaian forward Joseph Paintsil marked his debut in Major League Soccer (MLS) with a goal as LA Galaxy secured a 3-1 victory over San Jose Earthquakes.

Paintsil, who made his first appearance in the competition against Inter Miami, continued to impress by opening the scoring for his team in the 18th minute. He capitalized on a breakaway and finished with his weaker foot after receiving a pass from Marky Delgado.

The 26-year-old then turned provider, setting up Dejan Joveljic for LA Galaxy’s second goal, extending their lead to 2-0 against San Jose.

LA Galaxy maintained their dominance throughout the first half, heading into the break with a comfortable 2-0 lead.

In the second half, Riqui Puig added a third goal for LA Galaxy, sealing the victory and ensuring the three points.

Paintsil was substituted after 63 minutes, having put in another impressive performance for his new club. With two goal involvements in his first two games, the Ghanaian forward has made a strong start to his MLS career.
