We are only two months into the new season, but it's highly unlikely that you'll witness many better finishes, at any level, than this one. Eintracht Frankfurt shared a clip over the weekend of Under-9 goalkeeper Moritz Brand scoring an exceptionally impressive solo goal.
The Kid turned on 'Ankara Messi' mode
In a match against Mainz, Brand showcased their exceptional skill, emulating Manuel Neuer by carrying the ball from his half and evading every opponent on the field. To top it off, the goalkeeper executed a remarkable low finish, undoubtedly securing himself a nomination for this year's Puskas Award.
