Video: Stephanie Roche of Peamount United Ladies scores outrageously brilliant volley

Sweet Jesus, this is some strike.

Sweet Jesus, this is some strike.

Forget Jack Wilshere’s finish to a delightful Arsenal move against Norwich, forget another Aaron Ramsey cracker from the same game and forget Zlatan’s exquisite back-flick, this is without a doubt the best goal you’ll see today.

It was dispatched to the net with no shortage of power, poise and skill by Peamount United’s Stephanie Roche recently and it has the lot, from the brilliant touch to control the cross, the flick over the head of the defender and the emphatic strike that no ‘keeper in the world would have stopped.

Well done Stephanie, this is one to tell the grandkids about (and show to them repeatedly), that’s for sure.
