Big Andy struck with an amazing scissor kick to make the score two nil after Sofiane Feghouli had opened the scoring with a tap in and Manu Lanzini added a brilliant third.

Ac said immediately after the game: “I was determined to score today.

“Michail Antonio has played a great ball in just behind me. I hit one in training in the week and hit the post.

“I thought I’d give it another go and it’s gone in and I’m happy. It’s been a while in the making – I’ve been trying for a couple of years. It’s got to be the best goal I’ve scored.”
