Granted the defending was a little bit kamikaze at times but this is still something special.

Easy at it might seem against a sh*tty team on FIFA, an individual player running the length of the pitch to score a goal while being challenged by half the opposition en route isn’t a very easy task to accomplish.

The likes of George Weah have done it and have been celebrated for years afterwards and although Arthur Maia of Brazilian regional side America RN won’t get the same acclaim as some of his more illustrious counterparts, it shouldn’t take away from the quality of his goal nonetheless.

Only Maia seemed to spot the chance to take on the entire Globo side from the edge of his own box while they were retreating into their own half from a corner at the other end and he did so in spectacular fashion while also benefitting from the aforementioned kamikaze defending in the process.

Tik a boo son.
