Even for a free-kick specialist, this free-kick is special. Dimitry Payet has put West Ham ahead in their FA Cup tie at Old Trafford with about as perfect a set-piece as you will ever see. Given both the distance and the presence of David de Gea, Payet needed it to be unerringly accurate. It was:
Good grief. What a strike.

Takes something special to make De Gea look bewildered at how he's been beaten. Very special free-kick by Payet.

Superb free-kick, yet again, from the wonderfully talented Dimitri Payet

That is honestly the best free-kick I've seen in years. Take a bow Dimitri Payet.
