Paul McShane and Jamie Carragher lead the applause as Hal Robson-Kanu, for a moment, became Messi

What a turn

Darragh Murphy

It’s Euro 2016 and Hal Robson-Kanu just did this to the second best team in the world in the quarter-finals.

What a kooky time to be alive.

It was a goal out of the top drawer and one that gave Chris Coleman’s plucky Wales side a 2-1 advantage over the top ranked team at Euro 2016.

Having come from 1-0 down to a wondergoal from Radja Nainggolan, free agent Hal Robson-Kanu came up with some wonderfully quick feet in the box to turn the whole Belgian defence and free up a shot at goal.

He made no mistake, found the net and ensured that he’ll have a few offers for him before the summer is out.
