This was the moment Kilmarnock Women star Skye Stout scored a stunning free-kick on her debut.
The young midfielder, 16, only signed for the club last week after leaving Celtic but was targeted by vile trolls online.
Kilmarnock's signing announcement video was latched upon by the trolls who poked fun at her skin condition.
But Stout had the last laugh when he hit the net directly from a free-kick on her debut, helping her new team to a 6-2 victory over St Johnstone.

Video has now been released of the quality strike. It shows the talented teen lining up the dead ball at the edge of the box before wrapping her boot around it, curling it round the wall and into the net with the goalkeeper rooted to the spot.
She was mobbed by delighted teammates as they raced into a four-goal lead.

Stout received a heart-warming video message from Ally McCoist and also saw other names from the world of football sticking up for her, including former Celtic striker John Hartson and ex-Glasgow City midfielder Denise O'Sullivan.
In his message, which was shared by Tam Cowan, McCoist said: “Its strange surroundings so let me explain myself, my flight got cancelled and I’m now on a train to Birmingham to watch Aston Villa.
“This is the trials and tribulations of professional football for you Skye, it’s just a wee warning for you because I’ve just heard you’ve just signed for Kilmarnock which is absolutely fantastic news.
“I played down there for three years and it was three of the best years of my footballing life and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It’s a fantastic club with great people.
“You do well Skye, enjoy your football and hopefully one of these days I’ll get a chance to come and see you play. Good luck.”
