The goal was the 341st in Villa's club career, in addition to his total of 59 tallies for the Spanish national team – an all-time record for La Roja.
Villa began his professional career with Sporting Gijon, before moving on to Zaragoza, Valencia, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.
In 2015, the Spain legend departed his native country for Major League Soccer, where he signed with expansion side NYCFC.
It didn't take long for Villa to get his 401st career strike, as he took advantage of a mix-up in the FCD back line to slot home midway through the second half.
Make it 401. #NYCvDAL https://t.co/hjg7RGTAq9
