Newcastle United fans have been left wowed by a stunning solo goal from young prospect Elliot Anderson. The Scotland youth international has impressed since joining Bristol Rovers on loan in January, and netted his second senior strike in their comfortable home victory against Harrogate Town on Saturday.
Footage shows Anderson receiving the ball from a quick free-kick and immediately driving at the heart of the visitors' defence. The talented teenager beats the first man easily, before showing great composure to shrug off a challenge and find space between two defenders.
Anderson then goes on to calmly sidefoot his finish past Mark Oxley to score Rovers' second in a 3-0 victory. The clip was immediately shared on social media by the EFL's highlights partner Quest, and it was then picked up by Newcastle's account.
The attacking midfielder has now registered two goals and two assists in nine appearances so far as Joey Barton's side moved up to eight in the League Two table. Here is how Newcastle United fans reacted to Anderson's second senior strike for Bristol Rovers.
'Beardsley 2.0'
'Massive potential'
'Needs to be involved next season'
'Our Phil Foden'
'Starboy'
'Unreal'
