Video: Wesley Sneijder scores from a brilliant long-ranged freekick for Galatasaray

Wesley Sneijder celebrates after the win

It is amusing how often Wesley Sneijder is successful in scoring screamers, and how easy it is for him too at the same time. Playing for Galatasaray, the Dutch midfielder scored from a thunderous free-kick from 30-yards-out.

With Galatasaray coming into the second half with a lead in hand, following an opening goal from Yasin Oztekin, Sneijder stepped up for the Turkish side to take up the free-kick from the left side of the opposition’s box in their Super Lig tie against Karabukspor. And, astoundingly, Sneijder was successful in putting it in from quite a distance.

Galatasaray would eventually go on to win the match 4-2 with another goal from the former Real Madrid and Inter Milan midfielder in the 90th minute.
