Said Benrahma Curls In Sensational Long-Range Goal Against Derby County

Said Benrahma curled in a sensational long-range goal in Brentford's victory over Derby County on Saturday.

Benrahma scored a brace as Brentford beat Derby 3-1 at Pride Park to keep their automatic promotion push alive.

He bagged his first goal of the game in the 49th minute in fortunate circumstances after goalkeeper Ben Hamer spilled the ball over the line.

But there was nothing lucky about his second goal. The Algerian ace received the ball on the wing then skipped past two Derby players before unleashing a terrific strike into the top corner.

Benrahma's sixth goal in three matches sent social media wild.

"What a player. Going to be in the prem next season regardless if Brentford get there or not," one Twitter user wrote.

A second wrote: "This guy is different gravy on his day. Sensational goal."

A third added: "More money on that fee."

The 24-year-old has enjoyed a brilliant campaign with Brentford in the Championship this season.

He's weighed in with goals and assists as Premier League clubs keep tabs on him ahead of tabling a bid in the summer transfer window.

Chelsea, Arsenal and Leicester City, among others, have reportedly expressed an interest in signing the attacking star.
