Take a bow son, take a bow.

Now that Neymar is plying his trade in Barcelona, one would automatically think that the supply of amazing individual goals would dry up just a tad.

That hasn’t been the case thus far, however, and after Ronaldinho netted two brilliant free-kicks earlier on in the week, there was another cracker scored last night by Hyuri in Botafogo’s 3-1 win over Coritiba in the Brazilian Serie A.

The Botafogo attacker absolutely bamboozled three opposition defenders in their own box with a series of brilliant spins and touches, creating the space for an opportunity that he tucked away with ease.

The decibel level in the crowd seemed to increase with Hyuri’s move before culminating in a crescendo of noise at the finish and it was a worthy reception for a quite brilliant goal, one you will do well to see bettered in all of the international games taking place this weekend.

Hyuri, our caps are doffed to you, sir.
