As goal collections go, Xherdan Shaqiri’s is pretty special and nobody, it seems, enjoys re-runs more than the Switzerland international himself.
Shaqiri added two more to his montage at Hull — an unstoppable 25-yard curveball into the top corner in the first half and a precision free-kick just after the break — to lift Stoke out of the relegation zone.
The 25-year-old, whose scissor-kick against Poland was shortlisted for Euro 2016 goal of the tournament, said: ‘Most of the time my goals are really beautiful and I watch them time and time again.’
Since moving to the Potteries from Inter Milan in a then club-record £12million deal 14 months ago, Shaqiri’s goalscoring has focused on quality not quantity.
