Manchester United flop scores Puskas contender with stunning volley

Former Manchester United left-back Alexander Buttner scored a sensational goal for Dutch side De Graafschap earlier this week.

Buttner, who made 28 appearances for the Reds between 2012 and 2014, signed for De Graafschap earlier in the season after leaving RKC Waalwijk. The left-back has been in impressive form for his new side having registered a goal and two assists in his first 11 matches for the club.

The 33-year-old grabbed his second goal on Friday night with a stunning volley against Den Bosch. The Dutchman received the ball on the left flank after making a run down the wing and unleashed an audacious left-footed strike, despite being more than 30 yards from the goal.
