Riley McGree: remember the name. The Newcastle Jets midfielder astounded fans today with an audacious scorpion flick against Melbourne City.

The Jets were one nil down when McGree played a deft one-two, and when the ball popped up to him on the edge of the box the 19-year-old flicked the ball over Melbourne's 'keeper to level the scores.

Take a look below:

Newcastle Jets would go on to win the game 2-1, and you would have to say McGree's strike is up there with Olivier Giroud and Henrik Mkhitaryan's scorpion kick goals.
Australian football fans have been applauding McGree's strike online, with many calling it the greatest ever goal scored in the A-League.
