6.9

About this goal

From 30 yards out, Sturridge shifts the ball onto his left foot and whips a glorious curling shot into the top right-hand corner.

Ratings

Aesthetically Pleasing 22/30

 

A better than average effort as he shifts the ball deliberately to look to execute the dipping shot over the goalkeeper.

Technical Difficulty 19/30

 

It's more free-kick-like than other long-range goals, and Sturridge's skill lies in his ability to get the ball up and down into the net.

Uniqueness 12/20

 

A long-range goal, but the curling technique involved makes it more memorable than others.

Importance 7/10

 

A late equaliser away to Chelsea.

Standard of Opposition 9/10

FootballCritic Verdict

6.9

Who doesn't love a long-range strike that is closer to a free-kick in its execution.
