VIDEO: Alvaro Negredo shows he is a wizard with this goal before Valencia v Real Madrid

This is the guy who City deemed surplus to requirements.

Alvaro Negredo had quite the eventful afternoon yesterday.

The Mancheser City loanee conceded an early penalty when Real Madrid visited the Mestalla which Cristiano Ronaldo predictably converted.

The Spaniard, who is currently on loan at Valencia, saw his day get better though when his side rallied and managed to break Real Madrid’s record of winning something like 640 games in a row.

While Negredo didn’t manage to get on the scoresheet in the game, he was in fine form before the match as he provided us with this magical, behind-the-goal effort that somehow went in.

Paul Pogba did something similar for Juventus last month but Negredo was much further back so we’ll give him the nod for the better goal.
