Real Sociedad defender halfway to paradise, again
Posted Monday, November 28, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
At the beginning of last month, young Real Sociedad defender Inigo Martinez scored a stunning goal from inside his own half in the Basque derby against Athletic Bilbao.
As brilliant as it was, that effort proved to be a mere consolation for his side.
On Sunday, however, Martinez did it again, and this time the goal could prove to be one of his team's most important this season.
In the last minute of Real Sociedad's game away to Betis, the 20-year-old stepped out from his position in central defence to rob possession, before striding forward to the halfway line, from where he sent in a left-footed strike that flew over goalkeeper Casto and into the net.
Betis had recovered from two goals down, but Martinez's goal sealed a vital 3-2 win for the San Sebastian side.
