Mangione paced the scoring with a brace coming in the first half after he also found the back of the net at JAX earlier in the season. His first goal came just eight minutes into the match following a cut back from Markus Anderson and side footing the ball in-between the pipes. In the 27th minute Brooklyn doubled their lead as Olney chipped a cross to the back post that found Mangione for his second goal of the game.

After assisting Mangione’s second tally and helping create Brooklyn’s third goal for Anderson, Olney decided to get involved with the scoring himself, adding the fourth for Brooklyn in the 77th minute of the match.

He was sent through one-on-one with the goalkeeper, with his initial attempt being saved, but stayed composed to get his rebound and slide the ball into the net past a defender on the line. This is Olney’s second Team of the Week appearance, after also being named to the bench back during week 14/15.
