Chelsea legend Frank Lampard couldn’t hide his admiration after Moisés Caicedo unleashed a thunderbolt from outside the box against Ajax in the Champions League.
“What a strike! Absolutely brilliant from Caicedo,” Lampard exclaimed on commentary. “That’s what top midfielders do — timing, confidence, and pure power. He’s been growing in that role, and this is the kind of moment that defines a player.”
The Ecuadorian midfielder, often praised for his defensive discipline, surprised everyone by stepping up in attack — driving forward and smashing a long-range effort that flew past the Ajax keeper and into the top corner.
Fans at Stamford Bridge erupted, while social media lit up with clips of the goal being replayed from every angle.
Lampard summed it up best: “That’s world-class — a goal that shows how complete Caicedo is becoming.”
