Okolo just turned 24 on a week ago and his goal could be an early indication of what to expect from the ex-Cincinnati star. At the USL club, he made 29 appearances in 2016 and scored 16 goals.

Sean Okoli continues his goal-scoring form from @fccincinnati with a bullet-curler from the top of the box for #NYCFC. Promising finish.
