The strike gave the Robins a 1-0 lead against Westfield and came after defender Joe Gater was fouled in the Bracknell half.

As you can see in the video taken and posted by The Beautiful Game, Scott see’s Westfield goalkeeper Gary Ross off his line and manages to get the ball between the ‘keepers outstretched hand and the underside of the bar.
