And it really was a huge goal as it took Leicester City into 3rd place on 66 points. The Foxes could still drop into 4th place if Chelsea beat Arsenal tonight.

The defender reacted to the goal on his social media accounts after the game.

Soyuncu shared a photograph celebrating the goal on his Twitter account followed by a message directed at the recent trouble in Israel and Palestine.

He wrote: “My prayers are with my brothers in Jerusalem, I don’t want anymore innocent people to die. Enough is enough.”
