Miguel Almiron scores goal-of-the-season contender as Newcastle star lashes in volley against Fulham sending fans wild
FANS have been left stunned after Miguel Almiron scored a goal of the season contender.
The Newcastle United star looks to have been given a new lease of life this season, and paid back Eddie Howe’s faith with a stunning effort against Fulham.
Receiving the ball on the left flank, Almiron then played a pass into midfield, where Bruno Guimaraes then clipped a perfectly weighted pass into the channel behind the defence.
Almiron, who had immediately set off on a run into the area following his pass, then wrestled off a defender before lashing the ball towards goal .
His volley then found the top corner leaving ex-Arsenal stopper Bernd Leno with no chance.
And the goal was also met with praise from fans.
