WATCH: Davinson Sanchez's bicycle kick - lucky or pure skill?
Thursday 6 April 2017 12:04, UK
Davinson Sanchez's bicycle kick put Ajax ahead against AZ on Wednesday night, but did the defender get lucky with his acrobatic attempt?
With the score level at 1-1, Sanchez brilliantly improvised to hand Ajax the lead before goals from Lasse Schoene and Amin Younes added gloss to their Eredivisie victory.
A closer look at the bicycle kick shows Sanchez seemingly aiming for the opposite corner, but his effort ultimately came off the outside of his foot and sailed beyond the 'keeper.
Far be it from us to question the athleticism on show, but on a night where Luis Suarez netted a superb overhead kick, Sanchez's attempt seems somewhat fortuitous in comparison.
No doubt Sanchez will argue it was on purpose, but after all, if you don't buy a ticket to the raffle...
Watch the video above and decide for yourself!
