In fairness, it’s not common that a 26-year-old would net for a club’s U-20 side either, but players oftentimes drop down a level in order to build their match fitness before competing in the first-team.

Chofis certainly showed the youngsters how it’s done, scoring a goal from the halfway line that most players could only dream of pulling off. The audacity to even attempt something like this is commendable in itself.

What’s remarkable is that he doesn’t even appear to look up before taking the strike. He must have already noticed earlier in the game that the Leon U-20 ‘keeper was standing off his line.
