Whilst technically he was spot on, the actual difficulty of the strike wasn't that high. It was falling nicely for his favoured left foot, no pressure on him from the defenders or goalkeeper - the only difficulty would be generating the outward swing. Very attractive goal but in terms of overall difficulty, nothing compared to his volley against Charlton.
