Canadian goal-scorer and URFC striker Diana Matheson scored her first goal for the club on Saturday night, May 5, against the Washington Spirit at Rio Tinto Stadium.

Her composure on top of the box and well-placed shot has made Matheson a prime contestant for this week’s “Goal of the Week” vote. Let’s break it down.
