The Spanish lower-league striker who scored a Bale-style overhead kick

In the Spanish third tier you wouldn't usually expect to see a goal similar to one scored by one of the best players in the world, but that's what happened in the game between Recreativo Granada and Almeria B.

The score was 1-1 going in to the last half an hour of the game, with the home side looking for a moment of magic to get ahead in the game.

A ball came in to the box from the right flank, and seemed to be too high for striker Nacho Buil to reach.

However, he pulled of an incredible over-head effort, very much in the style of Gareth Bale's Champions League final goal against Liverpool to give his side the lead.
