After a superb run by Richarlison, James Rodriguez picked up the ball on the edge of the box, the star managed to drill it into the bottom corner despite being crowded out by a few players.
The attacking midfielder’s effort was smashed right into the bottom corner, leaving Sam Johnstone with no chance of a save.
