Wayne Routledge put Swansea City ahead 2-0 against West Brom Saturday in the Premier League with this spectuclarly athletic (borderline indescribable) volley. Sure the attempted clearance by Craig Dawson went right to him, but whatever. The only other guy you could think of pulling off a goal like this is Zlatan Ibrahimovic. If you thought you’d read Wayne Routledge and Zlatan in the same paragraph today, please head out to the nearest newsstand and collect your winnings.

You have to love the “oh shit” expressions on the West Brom players in the still photo.
