Houston Dynamo forward Kei Kamara has spoken of his tribute to fallen pop star Michael Jackson.

The 24-year old Sierra Leone striker pulled out a white glove after scoring the only goal in his side’s 1-0 victory over Kansas City Wizards on Saturday night.

"[It] was something I had in the pocket. Soccer is fun. And it's disappointing to see Michael gone," Kamara said.

"That's the only thing I can do to celebrate my Michael moment. I used to perform like Michael when I was a little kid back in Africa in talent shows. So I had to bring that one out."
