Paul Konchesky – West Ham United vs. FULHAM (January 2009)

Paul Konchesky is a West Ham United fanatic and he got the opportunity to play for the club for two seasons, even scoring in the FA Cup ‘Gerrard Final’ of 2006.

He moved to Fulham in the summer of 2007 and whilst the left-back didn’t score many, they were often very good goals. In this London derby back at Upton Park, he tried his luck from distance and his attempt paid off.

Given acres of room on the left-hand side, Konchesky was invited to drive into the West Ham half. From around 35-yards out, he launched an unstoppable shot that flies past Robert Green into the net and drew the visitors’ level with their first meaningful attack of the match. West Ham went onto win the match 3-1 but Fulham scored the Goal of the Day by some distance.
