Within the space of three days, Northern Irish football produced three of the best “What Happened Next” moments in the history of football.
On Tuesday, Oct. 5, Matty Burrows scored one of the greatest goals ever seen in football.
His audacious back-heeled volley from the edge of the box has catapulted the hitherto unknown Glentoran striker into being mentioned in the same breath as the likes of Diego Maradona, Pele, Lionel Messi and Archie Gemmill for when it comes to talking about the greatest goals ever scored.
Then on Friday, Oct. 8, Steven Davis saw himself inserted in football blooper reels for years to come before Burrows contributed with yet another wonder goal on the Saturday!
