Those who have traveled a few extra laps around the sun remember a very young David Beckham, brimming with confidence, going for a shot from midfield to score. On Wednesday, Josh Windass thought that, well, why not do the same.
The Sheffield Wednesday player took the ball in his own half, looked towards the goalkeeper in a sweeper position and struck from 55 yards. At the finish line!
Here you have the score as a New Year’s gift from Windass:
Sheffield Wednesday won 4-2 against Derby, Windass’s goal will be remembered for a long time at the Hilsborough Stadium. This could already be the goal of the year in the Championship.
