Top 10 Goals from Around the World This Weekend

With the return of the FA Cup in England and plenty of league football elsewhere, it was another busy weekend of goals.

Chelsea thrashed an understrength Manchester City side, and Championship Reading stunned Premier League West Bromwich Albion. Meanwhile, Arsenal will have to travel to face Hull City for a replay after their 0-0 draw at the Emirates Stadium.

Elsewhere, Juventus' long winning run came to an end with a goalless draw at Bologna in Serie A, and Real Madrid fell nine points behind Barcelona as they drew 1-1 with Malaga while their great rivals won 2-1 away to Las Palmas.

But the pick of the goals came elsewhere. Read on to see them in all their glory...

Jamie Butler, Hemel Hempstead vs. Sutton United

Warning: Video contains NSFW language.

We start our list in the National League South, where Hemel Hempstead Town grabbed an extraordinary late equaliser through the unlikeliest of sources.

The Tudors were trailing 2-1 at home to Sutton United when goalkeeper Jamie Butler launched the ball forward from deep inside his own half in search of a team-mate.

Only no team-mate was needed, as the ball bounced over the opposition 'keeper and into the back of the net.

Butler reacted by sprinting away, arm aloft, before sliding onto the floor where he was mobbed by his euphoric team-mates. And no wonder.

Paul Paton, Dundee United vs. Heart of Midlothian

The weekend's late drama extended to Tannadice Park, where Dundee United won 2-1 thanks to a stunning 89th-minute strike from Paul Paton.

The scores were level with time running out when the ball fell invitingly for Paton some 25 yards from goal. The midfielder took his time before smashing a brilliant strike that flew like an arrow into the back of the net.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you win a game.

Thomas Muller, Bayern Munich vs. Darmstadt

Bayern Munich maintained their eight-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga with a 3-1 win over Darmstadt on Saturday.

However, the German champions didn't find it easy going at the Allianz Arena, falling behind after 26 minutes and only going ahead for the first time with 71 minutes on the clock.

But it was a goal worth waiting for, as Thomas Muller showed impressive coordination to send a well-placed overhead kick into the top corner.

It was Muller's second goal of the match and further highlighted his importance to Pep Guardiola's side.

Domenico Berardi, Sassuolo vs. Empoli

Sassuolo beat Empoli 3-2 in an entertaining game at the Stadio Citta del Tricolore on Sunday, with the highlight coming via Domenico Berardi's left foot.

The home side trailed 1-0 as the clock ticked past 40 minutes, when Berardi brought the scores level with a thunderous volley from the edge of the box.

Gregoire Defrel scored twice in the second half as Sassuolo completed the turnaround.

Dimitri Payet, Blackburn Rovers vs. West Ham United

Dimitri Payet provided further evidence of his immense class on Sunday as he scored two and set up another in West Ham United's 5-1 win over Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.

The pick of the bunch came on 35 minutes, when Payet put the Hammers ahead with a sensational 25-yard free-kick.

From there, Slaven Bilic's side comfortably secured their place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, in no small part thanks to Payet's brilliance.

Kenny Miller, Queen of the South vs. Rangers

Kenny Miller's 100th league goal for Rangers was the difference as Mark Warburton's side secured a 1-0 win away to Queen of the South on Sunday.

The scores were level with over an hour gone at Palmerston Park when a throw-in found Miller just outside the box. The veteran striker needed no further invitation, crashing a wonderful dipping volley over the goalkeeper and into the net.

Pick that out.

Zach Clough, Bolton Wanderers vs. Queens Park Rangers

Young striker Zach Clough looked to have put Bolton Wanderers on their way to a much-needed win on Saturday with a fine curling effort at the Macron Stadium.

The 20-year-old's 68th-minute effort put the Trotters 1-0 up, but Queens Park Rangers snatched a stoppage-time equaliser through Matt Phillips.

John Goossens, Chicago Fire vs. University of Portland

Dutch midfielder John Goossens made the best possible impression while on trial for Chicago Fire this weekend, scoring a stunning volley in a friendly match for the Major League Soccer side against the University of Portland.

The former Feyenoord man's moment of glory came when he controlled a clearance on the chest before hitting a brilliant dipping volley over the goalkeeper and into the net.

If that doesn't get him a contract, I'm not sure what will.

Arkadiusz Milik, Ajax vs. Excelsior

Arkadiusz Milik provided the highlight of Ajax's 3-0 win over Excelsior on Sunday with a brilliant run and finish.

The match was goalless when Milik picked the ball up in the opposition half, turning away from one man and nutmegging another before bending a lovely finish into the far corner with his left foot.

Milik added a second after half-time before Davy Klaassen finished off the rout with five minutes remaining.

Lewis Baker, De Graafschap vs. Vitesse

Lewis Baker showed just why he's so highly rated by parent club Chelsea on Sunday with a brilliant late equaliser for Vitesse against De Graafschap.

Vitesse trailed 2-1 with six minutes remaining when the England U21 midfielder picked the ball up 30 yards from goal and hit a superb effort into the top corner.

Baker has been billed as a potential successor to Frank Lampard in the Chelsea midfield, and it's easy to see why with goals like this.
