Thierry Henry's dazzling bicycle kick gives Red Bulls a win

Thierry Henry scored two goals to lead the New York Red Bulls to a 2-1 victory over the Montreal Impact Wednesday night. But it was his bicycle kick game-winner that had the crowd at Red Bull Arena buzzing even after they left the stadium.

The goal came off a corner kick in the 88th minute to put the Bulls up 2-0 and provided the difference for the Bulls — who move into a tie with the Houston Dynamo for first place in the Eastern Conference — with a cushion for the victory.




"He’s a great player. Tonight just shows the class that he’s got," said midfielder Tim Cahill, who saw plenty of Henry magic in England when Henry played for Arsenal and Cahill for Everton. "When we needed him he comes up. The second goal was pretty special. The way that he took it was class and that’s what you need."
