Kaka's penalty in the 10th minute of stoppage time defined the meaning of late after the captain gave Orlando City a dramatic last-gasp 3-2 win at home to Toronto FC in MLS on Saturday.
After Julio Baptista was dragged down inside the area by Drew Moor in the 98th minute and Toronto's Josh Williams was sent off for arguing, Kaka eventually stepped up and blasted his penalty into the roof of the net at Camping World Stadium.
