Renowned for his long-range shooting ability, the Belgian midfielder showcased his talent in this area of the pitch during a 4-0 away win at Wolves two weeks ago and produced another moment of magic versus the Toffees on the stroke of half-time.

Collecting a pass from James Maddison on the edge of the area, Tielemans took one touch to control the ball before sending an unstoppable effort past Jordan Pickford into the top left corner of the goal.
