Now, you're not going to believe this after watching his goal from tonight, but Jeison Murillo is a defender.
He really is, we promise.
Can defenders score unstoppable bicycle kicks of the Andy Carroll variety? Yes. Should they even be trying to do so? Well that's a different argument altogether.
Murillo, a 24-year-old Colombian who joined Internazionale from Granada in 2015, had yet to score all season when Stefano Pioli's team welcomed Bologna to the San Siro.
Such a statistic might deter some players from trying speculative efforts on goal. Certainly it might deter a centre-back from letting rip with a first-time bike from around the penalty spot.
Well, aren't you grateful it didn't?

To say people were stunned would be an understatement.

Simply outrageous. Over to you,
Andy Carroll.
