Deep into the SPL game where Hougang United and Geylang International were tied at two-a-piece, Hougang’s André Moritz stunned Geylang with a goal right out of the top drawer. (Head to the 2:35 mark in the video below)

Geylang International had just pulled level one minute from full-time, but Moritz, the former Crystal Palace man, had other ideas. The Brazilian had spotted the Geylang goalkeeper off his line while awaiting kick-off. Once the whistle was blown, Moritz promptly unleashed a shot that cut across the night sky, nestling itself comfortably in the back of the net.

The hard-fought win was Hougang United’s first of the season, bringing them off the foot of the table. Their next match pits them against powerhouse Albirex Niigata, where a win will bring them level with the Japanese outfit. Geylang International, on the other hand, welcomes Tampines Rovers, who are above them on goal difference.
