I'm not really a supporter of anyone tilly. I just reckon if you can kick a ball a certain distance, as any pro footballer can, then you've got a chance of scoring a goal like that. It's more a goalkeeping error than anything.
Yilly, in football you have defenders, midfield players and strikers. Some midfield players are very accurate with their passing of the ball ( even at distance ) to strikers usually. However when an opportunity arises such as the one with Stoke yesterday a good midfield player spots that the opposition goalie is of their line and will use their accuracy and powerful shot to put the ball over the goalies head and into the back of the net.
