I refer to the overhead kick by Wayne Rooney which won the Manchester derby on Saturday.
Commentators are running out of superlatives to describe its brilliance.
I'm just wondering if it was quite as wonderful as some are saying.
Rooney had acres of space in the City penalty area.
He caught the ball perfectly, but any decent striker would have taken on the overhead kick in that situation.
I've seen similar opportunities missed, but I've also seen them scored.
