Not often you see something totally different in football but that definitely is. Bonkers goal.

Not really. He just sat on the ball and it fired from beneath him...

 

And the other goals you've seen like that were?

A six-year-old has joined Arsenal despite nearly losing a leg to a rare bone disease.

 

Fletcher Toll was left unable to walk when osteomyelitis paralysed his right leg when he was 17 months.

 

The disease left him with a 1cm hole in his hip, and doctors feared they might have to amputate his leg.

 

But he made an incredible recovery and has been snapped up by the Gunners, beating 40,000 rivals for a place at the Arsenal Soccer School.

 

He now trains once a week at the club's base in Spalding, Lincs, where coach Mark Angel told The Sun: "I see him having an excellent future in the professional game.

 

"His dribbling skills are excellent. His free kicks remind me of a young Beckham."

 

Fletcher's mother Lisa, from King's Lynn in Norfolk, said: "Doctors didn't think he'd ever be able to play football or walk."
