What a goal.
Wes Hoolahan scored the goal of the day on Saturday, in the Championship at least.
The Irish playmaker made a late-run beyond the Rotherham United defence, turned away from one defender after receiving the ball, left another victim with twisted blood, sending him for a hotdog with a wonderful Cryuff-turn, before calmly slotting past the helpless goalkeeper.
Wonderful stuff from Hoolahan.

Hoolahan’s goal helped Norwich to a 3-1 win and secured their place at the top of the Championship, leaving them a point ahead of Newcastle United.
The 34-year-old’s performance also went down a storm with Norwich fans on Twitter.

If Wes Hoolahan was 24 and not 34 and playing as well as he is, he'd be a £50m player. Late developer.
