Ballard's Backheel: Earliest Goal Contender

Dom Ballard's stunning backheel volley in game week two of the Championship has football fans questioning what the earliest goal in a season has ever gone on to win goal of the season. The Bristol City player's technically brilliant finish, which kissed the crossbar on its way in, has already been described as a potential Puskás Award contender.
