Anyway, that Son goal. Reminded me of this one - skip to 1 minute and for your own sanity put it on mute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7Ase_iHsSE

Son is an absolutely brilliant player. I've seen him live a few times, his balance and control at speed is a different level.
Ah Mark Delaney. What a right back he was.
Career cut short through injury.

The goal after Delaney's in that clip was even better, though the game was noticeably slower in those days.
