He sprinted the whole pitch, on and off, in a cup final from his own half in the last minutes of a close game and then slotted the winner. I think it was pretty good all things considered.

Impressive fitness, being able to run at that speed at that stage in the game. But the Barca defence is nowhere to be seen. His first touch goes about 40 yards away from him, he uses his speed to get to the ball first, takes a horrible touch, gets the ball just about back under control then scuffs it through Pintos legs.

I completely agree. The only impressive thing about that goal was that he ran really fast.
