Ridiculous lob gets a goal for Fleetwood Town

David Ball scored a goal to remember in England’s League One.

Late in the match and trailing Preston North End by a goal at home, Fleetwood Town needed a moment of magic to try and keep up in the race for the last playoff spot in League One. That's when substitute David Ball, a former Manchester City product, did that, finding space and taking the most hopeful of chips from 20 yards out that should have stood no chance of working.

Somehow, some way, it found the top corner at the far post and Ball was able to wheel away to score what will undoubtedly be the best goal of his career.
