Rangers winger Vaclav Cerny scored a long-range stunner for his country last night.
Czechia took on Gibraltar in their second World Cup qualifier, emerging emphatic 4-0 victors on the road.
21 minutes in, the 27-year-old picked the ball up on the right-hand side before cutting inside and firing the ball, with utmost power, from range into the bottom-right corner.

Cerny also picked up an assist in the match, setting up Patrick Schick for his country's second of the evening.
The winger was eventually named stats provider FotMob's Player of the Match, as he picked up a 9.2 rating.
He now has seven goals in 24 international appearances, although Cerny's full focus between now and the end of the season returns to the club scene.
Rangers travel to face Dundee this weekend as they aim to build on their 3-2 victory at Parkhead prior to the international break.
On loan at Ibrox from Wolfsburg, Cerny's agent opened up on his client's long-term future earlier this month: "I can't say what will happen next, but I don't think it's very realistic for him to stay at Rangers," he said.
"His contract at Wolfsburg ends in the summer of 2027, so I would assume that the club will want to recall him or there will be interested parties who would like to buy him.
"There is already interest from France and Italy.
"I know Vaclav's ambitions - to return to one of the top five leagues in Europe."
