Story brewing.
It is that man again.
They call him the Syrian Zlatan Ibrahimovic and you can see why.
Australia midfielder Mark Milligan gives the ball away in the middle of the park and it is played through to Omar Al Somah.
The big striker takes a touch before firing a left-footed strike into the roof of the net.
