Ola Kamara (Born: 15th of October 1989 | Height: 184cm | Nationality: Norway) equaled his most successful seasons – goal-wise in the 2021 MLS season with 19 league goals and finished 2nd in the MLS top scorer table, 3 goals behind the eventual winner of the Golden Boot, Valentin Castellanos. Kamara managed the same feat of 19 goals in 2017 while playing for Columbus Crew. There is one notable caveat to Kamara’s 2021 tally of 19 goals – he did it in just 1882 minutes played for DC United, compare that to the 3334 minutes he played in 2017 and his 2021 stats become all the more impressive.
