Watch: Djaniny Tavares of Santos scores a wonderful goal

By published

Tavares scored this slaloming beauty for Mexican side Santos last night.

The best type of great goal is, we can probably all agree, are the ones which you have to watch multiple times to understand. What exactly happened, why did the player do that, how did he get past that defender, etc.

Exhibit A is from last night's game between Santos and Leon in Liga MX.

Watch it once. Watch it twice. And then watch it again.

That's Djaniny Tavares with a very passable Paulo Wanchope impression.
