Macclesfield Town beat Wrexham 1-0 in their opening game of Vanarama National League on Saturday.
The sole goal came via the right boot of Castlebar's Noe Baba. Picking up the ball 35 yards from goal, Baba unleashed a rocket which flew through the hands of keeper Chris Dunn.

Baba joined Macclesfield earlier this summer after being released by Birmingham. The Cameroon-born defender, who turns 21 this week, hit the headlines five years ago when he joined Fulham from Castlebar Celtic amid speculation of interest from both Man Utd and Celtic.
Though he has dropped down the leagues since first moving to England, Friday night will still have been a debut to remember for Baba.
