Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 23/30
A superbly-struck volley from an angle that flies like an arrow towards its target and never deviates.
Technical Difficulty 21/30
It's more of an instinctive effort, but being able to control a volley on target from that distance takes great skill.
Uniqueness 12/20
Actually not that unique - volleys from that angle of the area were pretty common at that point.

Winner against the season whipping boys Sunderland
Standard of Opposition 5/10
