VIDEO: Paul Scholes rolls back the years with trademark netbuster for Masters XI

Never lost it

Kevin McGillicuddy

Paul Scholes could probably knock a chestnut from a tree his accuracy is so bloody good.

The former Manchester United man is widely known as one of the best ever midfielders, and his passing was almost always on the money.

Granted, his tackling was not quite as accurate, but if you wanted a ball pinged 35 yards onto someone’s bootlaces the red-haired England man was the guy you’d ask.

He had a wonderful ability to also net some classic long-range Premier League goals too, so it’s zero surprise he notched up a classy strike last night for a masters side playing in Hong Kong

The game ended 5-4 with Scholes joined by some legendary Premier League figures on the team
