Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 21/30
Woan is an acute angle but presents severe whip and dip to send it crashing into the net.
Technical Difficulty 20/30
Woan was a bit of a long-range specialist at this point and he shows superb control to keep the sufficient pace on the shot but keep it on target.
Uniqueness 12/20
One of many free-kicks, but the angle gives it a layer of originality.
Importance 6/10
In a home draw with Tottenham.
Standard of Opposition 7/10
TOTTENHAM
FootballCritic Verdict
Free-kicks have become so common as to become a little boring, but this is still a thrilling hit even now from a long-range specialist.
