Classy. Minnesota United fans cheer kids’ ‘goals’

Here’s your daily dose of sweetness:

The soccer game at Allianz Field was over by the time Angelo Rodriguez returned to the field after the game to give his kids a little taste of game time on Sunday.

But the fans stayed awhile longer rather than leave to beat the traffic.

Because: kids. And soccer.

Hey @MNWonderwall, you want to know why I think you’re the best? Imagine the feeling you gave these two boys (and their dad Angelo Rodriguez) when you cheered for them scoring after the game..incredible scenes from the @MNUFC supporters! pic.twitter.com/bHxe5UbpyX

Rodriguez the elder scored the lone goal in the first win for his team at the new soccer palace.
