Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 19/30
It's a well-placed goal from range into the only place he could score from - the keeper is at full stretch but just can't get there.
Technical Difficulty 19/30
Very difficult to get the correct bend from that distance to place the ball perfectly into the corner.
Uniqueness 11/20
Nice finish but we've seen goals in this distance and style before.
Importance 6/10
Strike in a 2-2 draw away at Everton
Standard of Opposition 7/10
EVERTON
FootballCritic Verdict
