We’ve witnessed many goals from near the halfway line thanks to the likes of David Beckham, Xabi Alonso, Wayne Rooney and more recently Charlie Adams, even some freak incidents from goalkeepers like Tim Howard and Paul Robinson.

However, few have the audacity to try to score from kickoff, many have tried but only few have succeeded. Given the difficulty of the task, even fewer would try it against a dominant side against Barcelona, even if it is their U15s. But Arsenal youngster Trae Coyle stepped up against the Spanish youngsters to score from kickoff.

It took Coyle mere seconds and just a look up to spot the keeper off his line and took his chance, his shot floated above all players including the keeper and into the net. The awareness and skill it took to pull it off might just draw Arsene Wenger’s attention.
