A goal of this quality requires not only exceptional technique but also perfect timing.

Furthermore, there’s always the risk of a counter-attack, which troubled Cristian Chivu’s mind.

However, Calhanoglu and Zielinski executed this outstanding set-piece action flawlessly, producing a moment of sheer brilliance.

There’s no doubt that Zielinski’s stunning volley will be in contention for the ‘Goal of the Season.’

Indeed, everything was perfect, from delivery to execution. It was an ideal first goal under Chivu for the Polish ace.
