Brighton star Julio Enciso scores another stunner as Man City fans applaud his equaliser at Amex Stadium


Julio Enciso scored another goal of the season contender as he earned Brighton a point against Manchester City at the Amex Stadium.

His 38th-minute strike was so good, that even the Citizens fans in attendance applauded it as the ball rifled into the back of the net.

Phil Foden had broken the deadlock on the south coast in the 25th minute in what was an end-to-end first half.

But their lead didn’t last long, as Enciso took aim from 25 yards out to leather the ball into the top right corner.

The 19-year-old, who has now scored four Premier League goals in his opening season in England, picked up a pass from Levi Colwill, before cutting in on his right foot.

And in a strike that Cristiano Ronaldo would be proud of, his effort swerved and dipped to leave Stefan Ortega no chance between the sticks.

Paraguay international Enciso is quickly becoming known for his striking abilities, having scored a similar goal in Brighton’s 2-1 win away at Chelsea last month.

Speaking on talkSPORT commentary of the goal, England legend Stuart Pearce said: “I tell you what, wow!

“Just watching the replay of that, I thought the goal at Stamford Bridge was a great goal.

“He’s aimed for the far corner, he’s hit it as true as an arrow, there’s no curl on it, wowee.”

Social media was also sent into a meltdown over the equaliser, as one user tweeted: “That was better than his goal against Chelsea. Enciso is some player.”

Another commented: “ENCISO WHAT A GOAL. This guy spawned out of nowhere against us and now he’s constantly doing so good.”

A third added: “There’s no way Ortega would have reached that. What an outrageous strike from Enciso!”

This fan then quipped: “Enciso giving himself some competition for goal of the season.”

Meanwhile another simply stated: “Julio Enciso, take a bow.”

And one City fan at the game was left just as wowed by the goal as he failed to hide his amazement.
