If Koke keeps this up,he could earn himself the tag of “the next Steve Staunton”
Atletico’s star midfielder scored a rather special goal during a pre-season match with Tosu.
Stepping up to take the corner kick, Koke decided he wouldn’t go for the conventional set-piece. Instead, he drew inspiration from a 102 cap former Irish international and have a crack at goal.
Just like Steve Staunton did against Northern Ireland all those years ago, Koke’s effort went soaring into the net.

He may be from Madrid, but the 23-year-old could well have Louth blood pumping through his veins.
