Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 20/30
For a long-range goal it does have a satisfying ping off the post on the way in from an interesting angle.
Technical Difficulty 16/30
It's not much more than a swing of the leg and hope that it hits the target, but one that works out well.
Uniqueness 10/20
Paint-by-numbers long-range hit. Schar would hit the next 99 into the stand.
Importance 6/10
In a comfortable home win v Burnley.
Standard of Opposition 6/10
BURNLEY
FootballCritic Verdict
A perfectly sweet hit. But there were two better goals scored in this month from Anthony Martial and Sadio Mane. A lucky monthly winner.
