3-0 down in the 48th minute and it looked like Los Angeles FC were going to cruise to win the first ever EL Trafico. However, things changed when Zlatan Ibrahimovic took the field.

The Swede came on in the 71st minute when the score was 3-1. LA Galaxy scored once again in the 73rd minute and the game was thrown wide open. Around 20 minutes to go and just one goal separating the two teams.

Before LAFC could do anything, Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored a stunner from 40 yards out to level things up! And in the end, scored the winner in the 91st minute to complete the stunning comeback...

Here's how Twitter reacted:

@MLS just became MLZ with triple value. Always proud of @Ibra_official

A huge moment for #MLS. The first LA derby, Galaxy come from 3-0 down to LAFC 4-3 and #zLAtan bags two. A real ‘where were you when..’ moment.
