Josh Windass goes into his side’s Championship match against Derby in excellent form having scored in each of his last four appearances.
Boss Danny Rohl, mindful of player loads during the busy festive season, decided to rotate the number 10 to the bench for the game against the Rams before bringing him off at half-time.
A managerial masterstroke?
Just over 15 minutes after entering the action, Windass, who was very unhappy about not starting, got the ball about 35 yards from his own goal, took a touch and…
“I was just watching and at first I was going to try to go over the defender but the keeper was too far away and I thought ‘he’s done here’,” he told BBC Radio Sheffield.
Rams goalkeeper Jacob Widell Zetterstrom was beaten from 62.2 yards, and if his new year’s resolution wasn’t to stay away from his own goal in the past, it probably is now.
Windass, meanwhile, is hopeful that the goal will earn him a nomination for the Fifa Puskas Award, given to the best finish in world football in a year, after feeling he was snubbed last year for a brilliant goal at Blackburn.
