Watch Dundalk midfielder Jordan Flores' wonder goal that has gone viral

You just don't save these.

Jordan Flores scored one of the best goals you're likely to see on Friday night.

The Dundalk midfielder connected with Michael Duffy's corner with an unstoppable volley which flew into the top corner of the net.

Flores' torso was contorted and both feet appeared off the ground as he rocketed the ball past Shamrock Rovers goalkeeper Alan Mannus in Friday night's top of the table League of Ireland clash at a sold-out Tallaght Stadium.

It was so good the official FIFA Twitter account quickly declared the goal as a potential Puskas Award candidate.

The Puskas Award goes to the player - male or female - who scores the 'most beautiful' goal of the calendar year.

Flores' strike has also been shared by Twitter accounts from all over the world, from Germany to Indonesia to the Netherlands.

Flores' celebrations didn't last too long, however, as Shamrock Rovers came from behind to earn a 3-2 win.
