FRISCO - Reggie Cannon scored his first career goal in a 2-2 draw vs. Vancouver Whitecaps FC, becoming the seventh FC Dallas Academy product to score a goal in MLS.
Santiago Mosquera hit Roland Lamah on a quick free kick, then Lamah found Cannon around 25 yards out at the corner of the 18-yard box. Cannon did the rest and beat defender Brett Levis to the inside and ripped a left-footed shot past Brian Rowe to the far post, giving FC Dallas a 1-0 lead late in the first half.
It was a special moment for the 19-year-old, but unfortunately after the team conceded two late goals, the moment was bittersweet.
“It felt great at the moment, but it doesn’t matter if we don’t get the three points at the end of day,” he said.
