FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Inter Miami fans can rejoice that their new soccer team has a world-class striker — and they can count on some world-class wordplay from their announcer, too.
Argentine national Gonzalo Higuaín netted his first MLS goal on a stunning free kick Wednesday night in a 2-1 victory at the New York Red Bulls.

Behold it in all its glory:

“He steers this one, it grows big eyeballs on the way to the net...”
“... and it’s as sharp as vinegar!”
“That is class in a glass.”
