(Reuters) - Nicolas Gaitan ran nearly 50 metres and chipped the opposing goalkeeper to score an extraordinary goal and give Portuguese league leaders Benfica a 1-0 win at Belenenses on Sunday.
The Argentine collected the ball near the touchline around 10 metres inside his own half and accelerated away from three opponents. He then burst between two defenders to give himself a clear run on goal and chipped the ball over goalkeeper Matt Jones from around 25 metres.
