Zlatan Ibrahimovic struck for his first MLS hat trick to lead the LA Galaxy to a wild 4-3 win over Orlando City SC Sunday at StubHub Center.


Ibrahimovic scored all three of his goals after halftime as the Galaxy (10-7-5) erased a 2-1 halftime deficit. He leveled at 2-2 three minutes into the second half, rising up to meet a chipped in cross by Gio dos Santos and heading in his 13th goal of the season.


Dom Dwyer gave Orlando (7-14-1) a third lead seven minutes later with a headed goal of his own after an inch-perfect cross by Mohamed El-Munir.


Ibrahimovic had his brace in the 67th minute with a diving header to level the match for the third time and then put the Galaxy in front for the first time four minutes later,  ripping off his jersey to celebrate his first MLS hat trick.
