good morning!
Do we have the goal of the season already?
This is just one question you’ll ask in today’s hoddle (The other is: Are we going to have to EFL Championship posts this week? The answer to that is YES).
Today’s comes from Mark Harris of Oxford United, who scored a potential goal-of-the-season contender already against Blackburn Rovers. Let’s take a look:
There’s a lot to like about this goal:
- The hockey assist from the goalkeeper. Who doesn’t love to chuck it long?
- The control from the Oxford United striker (?), who deftly controlled the ball with his chest.
- And most importantly, that incredible volley from Harris.
And good on him too for seeing that the Blackburn keeper was well off his line. Even if he were, I am not sure he would have gotten it. What a sensational strike.
Oxford United would prefer you remember that goal instead of them losing that game 1-2.
