In a display of soccer skill that the opponent’s manager Steve Evans called “The goal of the century,” Joe Garner received a pass with his chest, bounced it over a defender’s head, and then, from 25 yards out, volleyed it toward the net where the goalie had no hope of reaching it.
Finishing his adulation for the goal which took place in the recent game between Preston North End and Rotherham, Evans remarked, “If there is a better goal in the play-offs this year, then I’ll wake up a chicken.”
