Hyundai A-League goal of the round: Georgievski’s gem

There’s nothing sweeter than scoring against your old club and Daniel Georgievski’s peach against Melbourne Victory has earned him the Hyundai A-League Goal of the Week for Round 8.

After falling behind early at home, the fullback pulled the Jets level before Newcastle completed a stunning turnaround to thump the visitors 4-1. 

Dimitri Petratos teed-up Georgievski inside the area with the ex-Victory defender taking a touch before firing a thumping strike into the roof of the net.

It was Georgievski’s first goal against his former club, with the 29-year-old reserving any celebration as a sign of respect for his former employers.  

As a fan-voted award, the Jets defender’s goal picked up 37% of the total votes, narrowly edging  Andrew Hoole’s cracker for the Mariners against Phoenix (35%). 

Kosta Barbarouses’ strike for Victory against Jets earned 28% of submissions.
