MLS: Ghana forward Joseph Paintsil opens scoring account with LA Galaxy

Fast-paced Ghana winger Joseph Paintsil opened his scoring account with LA Galaxy in the Major League Soccer on Saturday in their 3-1 win over San Jose Earthqukes.

Paintsil was only making his second appearance for the club he joined in late February from Belgian giants Genk.

The Ghana international smashed from inside the box after Mark Delgado had released him with a fine pass.

Paintsil gave La Galaxy the lead in the 18th minute and just before the first half whistle, he squared a ball for Dejan Joveljic to finish home from inside the area to make 2-0.

Three minutes after the break, the former Tema Youth player was the service man for Riqui Puig to score the third goal.

Paintsil was replaced after 63 minutes by Gabriel Pec.
