We knew he was good, we knew he had some nasty firepower in those legs, but if we’re talking in terms of military equipment, then Jamaica has found themselves a genuine rocket launcher in the like of Michail Antonio.The experienced West Ham striker, 31, has earned his first call-up for the Reggae Boys just recently, but it’s blatantly clear he’s on fire straight from the start. He’s already netted twice in the first three games, and yesterday’s screamer against the United States deserves to be talked about. And praised, too, for its utterly satisfying accuracy and power.

THU: 03.30: (1.62) FLAMENGO (3.80) CORINTHIANS (5.90)George Weah’s son Timothy put the Yankees ahead with an early opener before Antonio stepped up. It was the 22nd minute when he picked up the ball in the middle and provided himself with enough space to nail a true belter! The power of that shot was incredible, with zero chances left to the US keeper to get a hold of the ball. An equaliser that stunned everyone in the stadium, including the players on the pitch.##EDITORS_CHOICE##The Hammers are doing pretty well this season, and David Moyes should be more than happy to see one of his main attacking forces is as ruthless as it gets.
