Rafa Silva goal worth price of admission

Benfica Blog
Benfica's Rafa Silva scored a goal that has the world of football talking today after he sprinted end to end to open the scoring for Benfica in their Week 27 encounter against Estoril.

The goal itself was worth the price of admission to yesterday's game and to witness the astonishing feat live by the 28 year old winger was a sight to be hold. Rafa wisely intercepted a short corner attempt by Estoril's Andre Franco and ran three quarters of field down to the Estoril goal through the visiting players before placing the ball past their keeper Daniel Figueira.

Rafa goal saw him sprint over 80 meters in just 11 seconds, while making 11 touches to the ball in between and going an average speed of 27.1 km per hour. All that was missing was an exuberant goal celebration by Rafa after scoring in what should be a shoo in to be announced UEFA's goal of the year.
