About this goal
Kasami takes a first touch on his chest before sending a volley looping over the goalkeeper without the ball touching the ground.
Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 28/30
The skill Kasami shows to keep the move alive with his chested touch is impressive enough, but the resulting volley really is special.
Technical Difficulty 27/30
To control on the chest, while on the run, then connect the volley so sweetly at that angle, it's an extraordinarily difficult move.
Uniqueness 17/20
Not many volleys include such an elaborate setup as this.
Importance 6/10
In a thrashing of Crystal Palace.
Standard of Opposition 6/10
Crystal Palace
FootballCritic Verdict
Kasami was beaten to the goal of the month by Wilshere's overrated pinball strike against Norwich. A scandal.
