IF YOU MISSED last night’s pre-season friendly between Red Bull Salzburg and Schalke 04, you missed this.

Schalke keeper Timo Hildebrand was left looking a little bit silly when defender Martin Hinteregger scored this cracker (that’s the only egg pun, we promise) from all of 70 yards.

Salzburg went on to win 3-1.

German football club will fly rainbow flag permanently at their stadium
