This is the moment Napoli star Hirving Lozano bends a ball into the net from far behind it in a training goal which appears to defy the laws of physics.
Napoli winger Lozano, 24, scored the goal when he was training with the Mexican national team in New Jersey located in the state of New Jersey in the United States.

The team are preparing for their first CONCACAF Nations League match against Bermuda this Saturday 12th October 2:00 AM (BST).
The national team released a video during a training session showing Lozano scoring an incredible goal.
The video shows Lozano, also known as Chucky, as he approaches the ball a few metres behind the net near the corner flag as his fellow Mexico teammates watch the young winger make the attempt.
Lozano kicks the ball with his right foot, bending it so much that it comes round and into the far corner of the net after hitting the base of the post.
The Napoli man is seen turning around smiling from ear to ear after the ball goes in. It is unclear the number of attempts he needed to score the incredible goal.
Lozano was recently sold to Napoli for a reported 42 million EUR (37.74 million GBP) from PSV Eindhoven, making him the most expensive Mexican player in history.
He has made 37 appearances for Mexico and has scored nine goals. He scored the lone goal in a 1–0 win over defending champions Germany in Mexico’s opening group match at the 2018 World Cup.
