Robbie Neilson reckons we can draw a line under this year's goal of the season competition right now after Stephen Humphrys’ jaw dropping strike against Dundee United.
The Hearts sub sealed the points for the Jambos with the final kick of the game when he burst from his own 18-yard line, rode a couple of tackles and then let fly from the halfway line. Humphry’s screamer settled a frantic battle at Tynecastle as Hearts came from behind to beat 10 men United – who saw Ryan Edwards sent off after a VAR check on his hefty follow through on Andy Halliday.
Steven Fletcher fired United ahead early but Lawrence Shankland and Alex Cochrane turned it around before Humphrys produced something extra special to make sure. Neilson said: I’ve been here for a long time and see a lot of games over the years but I can’t think of a better goal to be honest with you. It was an unbelievable finish.
