WATCH: Lee Chin scores outrageous lob and we’re pretty sure he meant it

We really hope he did

Patrick McCarry

Lee Chin is handy at sport. Just about all of them.

The Wexford hurling star is preparing for the championship summer by playing a spot of football for his local club, Sarsfields.

Over the weekend, Chin lined out for Sarsfields in the Wexford Senior Football clash with Shelmaliers. He had a fine time of it and scored 2-4 in the process.

Both of Chin’s goals arrived in the first half. The first saw him beat two men to a high ball to fist home and the second, well, that was special.

Taking advantage of a short kick-out that went awry, Chin sized up his scoring options. With three Shelmaliers defenders bearing down, Chin spotted the goalkeeper back-pedalling towards his line and kicked a delicious lob.

Some may argue the 24-year-old did not mean it but his look up before shooting convinces us he certainly did. Check out both goals below, posted by Wexford GAA last night:

Despite his impressive scoring return, Sarsfields lost out by six points – 2-14 to 2-8.

Good to see Chin is keeping himself in scoring shape.
