Antonio Valencia's Screwball Goal Was A Work Of Odd Beauty

A brilliant defensive performance by Blackburn Rovers was ruined when Manchester United's Antonio Valencia sliced in a strike that caught keeper Paul Robinson out of position and floated into the goal. Don't let Robinson's failure detract from the ridiculous spin Valencia put on the shot, though; even repeated viewings are leaving us wondering exactly how he pulled it off.
