Chicharito Ends Bundesliga Drought with a Curling Golazo

Some people prefer their golazos in the upper corner. Not Chicharito.

Chicharito's first goal in six games for Leverkusen gives the hosts a 2-0 lead over Wolfsburg. #B04WOB https://t.co/GB4ZIAoCbH

Chicharito tallied an impressive 14 Bundesliga goals going into Leverkusen's matchup against Wolfsburg today, but it had been five games since he last scored. Ten minutes after coming off the bench, however, the Little Pea had something to say about that. Drought no more, no more.

After making a fairly rough challenge that was feebly contested after the run-of-play, Chicharito found himself with the ball, cleats kissing the corner of the 18-yard box, and saw a vision few else would have: a naked lower right corner that had his name on it. Now, a lot of curlers stake their beauty in reaching the upper corners. But Chicharito sees your played golazo trope, and snuffs it out with a burner to the lower corner. Golazo, golazo.
