He just can’t stop bloody scoring, Aiden McGeady nets last minute equaliser for Preston North End

He is showing some incredible form at the minute.

What a few months it has been for Aiden McGeady. After being frozen out of the Everton team, the Irish star went on loan to Sheffield Wednesday for the second half of the 2015/2016 season. That move proved ill-fated after a promising start and once he failed to impress in the Championship that time around, many people were wondering if the career of the Glasgow-born winger was coming to an end. However, it's a funny sport and McGeady is currently playing some of the best football of his career for his new club, Preston North End. He is currently on a season-long loan at Deepdale after manager, Simon Grayson, decided to take a punt on the winger. The 30-year-old has been prolific over the last number of weeks as he has been notching up a number of goals and assists for his new club. His latest goal came in the dying minutes of Preston's 2-2 away draw against Blackburn Rovers. https://twitter.com/pnefc/status/843112144010952704 McGeady struck home from close range in the dying moments of the game to give his side a much valuable point. The result leaves Preston five points off the playoff positions. Both Preston and Irish fans were in glowing admiration https://twitter.com/WardyPne/status/843125151202000896 https://twitter.com/tommyelly8010/status/843124630567247874 https://twitter.com/Legoffootball21/status/843123435110916096 https://twitter.com/shamblessmurph/status/843122455543795712 https://twitter.com/EamonnMcGovern/status/843120662613057536 https://twitter.com/ManLikeGoldzz/status/843120457037561856 https://twitter.com/Monksy91/status/843118874967113729 His form will come as a huge boost to Martin O'Neill who looks set to be without a number of key players for Friday's World Cup qualifier with Wales.
