Frank Lampard had an incredible goal record for his former club Chelsea.
The England midfielder scored 211 goals, cementing himself as the club’s all-time record goalscorer scorer.
While everyone probably thought he would be banging them in from the off at New York City FC in a side with David Villa and Andrea Pirlo, it took him a few games to get off the mark.
But when he did it was a classic Frank Lampard goal. He was hovering around the edge of the box and when the ball came to him, he made no mistake – controlling it, before placing it right in the bottom corner.
It was a lovely finish from Lampard, but just look at that ball over the top from Pirlo. That’s a ball you could make sweet, sweet love to.
