18 WTF Moments From Newcastle 3-3 Man Utd

15. Georginio Wijnaldum's Finish

We're all aware now that Gini is one of the best goal scoring midfielders around. Eight goals from his first half season in what is widely proclaimed the best league in the world - varying from long range piledrivers to neat close range headers - tells you that. But it's the way that the Dutch international took Newcastle's opening goal of the night is what makes this list. It's the way his contorted his body to instantly react to a falling ball. It's the way he somehow kept the ball down even though he was under the most intense pressure thanks to Man Utd's two goal lead and the half time whistle looming large. It's the way he only took one touch to beat arguably the world's best shot stopper in David De Gea with unerring accuracy. Even though more spectacular looking goals will garner more attention, you really can't use enough superlatives to describe how great Gini's finish was.
