Yep, Steve'e Leo Galaxy shot is quite excellent and indicative of the consistently high standard awarded in this international competition over the last 10 years. I think Steve had a ball in the UK but is happy to be on his way home now too :hi:...wonder if the trophy fitted in the overhead :question:
