MAIDENHEAD UNITED continue to lead the way in the National League South and striker Dave Tarpey is on fire, scoring another four on Saturday.
His quartet in the 5-0 thrashing of Dartford took him to 26 for the season so far and his second goal has got people talking on social media.
The clinical striker collected a header on before flicking the ball over a Dartford defender with his backheel as he raced towards goal.
As well as having bundles of skill, Tarpey also showed his strength to hold off two Dartford defenders before firing past Gibraltar international goalkeeper Deren Ibrahim.
Following Saturday’s victory, Tarpey told The NLP: “I love scoring but the performance was excellent. Dartford have been flying so we knew they were going to be solid.
“I think we surprised them and got a few early goals and took off. We had a break last week and I think that obviously helped us.
“They had a couple of hard games, Saturday and Tuesday, so we were fresh and we shocked them how quickly we came out of the blocks.”
Is Tarpey’s goal one of Non-League’s best ever? Judge for yourself below…
