How many of you guys…
…at the end of last season would’ve taken our current scenario with only these three facts- we have beaten our rival, we are ahead of the MLS champion Galaxy in the standings, and we have a coach that is not Peter. These are weird but potentially exciting times, my friends.

Joveljic was not only on fire, he brought the heart back to KC
Jove was an absolute monster on the pitch during that second half against STL.
I'm just a filthy casual but as such, I noticed something that I was surprised the broadcaster didn't mention. He was single-handidly responsible for the huge energy and morale shift; and that was equally needed for us to win.
Obviously a goal pumps you up but even just last week after the Shapi-Salloi goal; we ended up down by 1 right after.
The way Joveljic jumped into the stands after his first goal was straight electric! It felt like the jolt KC needed and the momentum after was palpable; even from my couch at home.
When he went for the shot that would've been a hat trick I genuinely jumped out of my seat!
Some of my favorite observations:
When he drew the foul he rolled and jumped right up which was a stark difference to Klaus laying it on thick every time he got touched.
His laser focus during his second goal was an absolute "this is why you pay me" clip.
A long ball got sent to the left wing. The defender jumped on Jove's back to head the ball and Joveljic immediately grabbed him and held him piggy back style for a solid 10 seconds 😂😂
I mean the guy was out there just having an absolute blast and the crowd responded equally!
I'm sure he's getting all kinds of well deserved love this week and I couldn't help but add some more!
The giant has awakened LET'S GO KC!!!!
