Milan Iloski scored and helped Philadelphia secure a 3:1 victory over Robert Lewandowski's Chicago, adding another strong performance to his Major League Soccer season. Iloski brought the game level at 1:1 with a finish in the 49th minute before his team pulled away.
Iloski climbs the scoring charts
The goal was Iloski's 18th of the campaign, which places him third on the MLS scoring list behind Lionel Messi and Musa. In addition to his goal, Iloski has contributed two assists this season, underscoring his importance to Philadelphia's attack.
Philadelphia's win came on the back of a balanced attacking display: Iloski's equaliser changed the momentum early in the second half and the hosts added goals to complete the 3:1 result. The opposition line featured Robert Lewandowski, but Chicago could not overturn the deficit.
The result further cements Iloski's reputation as one of the league's most in-form forwards. His finishing and involvement in goals have drawn attention, and his seasonal numbers mark him out among MLS top scorers.
There is also a national angle: many observers lament that North Macedonia cannot currently field a striker of Iloski's scoring profile, given the national team's need for a prolific forward.
