Jack Colback was the talk of the City Ground and beyond after scoring a spectacular goal as Nottingham Forest swept aside West Bromwich Albion 4-0 on Easter Monday.
The Reds cruised into a dominant position after Darnell Furlong had collected a second yellow card in only the 17th minute, following up a foul on Philip Zinckernagel by handling a James Garner shot in the area. Brennan Johnson converted the penalty and Ryan Yates added another with a 23rd-minute header, before Colback hit a spectacular volley from the tightest of angles, wide on the left. But was it intended as a shot or a cross?
Sam Surridge completed the scoring in the third minute of added time, as Forest took a firmer grip on their position in the play-off places. Colback's unlikely stunner dominated much of the post-match discussion, with Reds boss Steve Cooper saying: “Jack said that he tried it… brilliant.
