THE BIGGER PICTURE: It's not often that a moment of such quality is seen in senior football, let alone in youth football pulled off by a relatively unknown entity. However, Gamez will certainly be remembered for this sensational strike, even if he doesn't succeed at the highest level.
WHAT NEXT FOR GAMEZ? Having made a name for himself online, Gamez will certainly want to kick on and improve his all-round game as he looks to carve out a career.
