Patrik Schick of the Czech Republic scored a spectacular goal from halfway, leaves everyone amazed.

When Scotland defender Jack Hendry's effort was blocked by a Czech player in the 52nd minute, the rebound rolled to Schick near the centerline. With only one defender to beat and a teammate on the way, the 25-year-old realized the Scotland goalie was off his line and chose to take a long-range shot.

The second half was a lot more open than the first. Before Scotland roared back, Jack Hendry rocked the bar and Vaclk clawed away a mis-hit clearing from TomáKalas, David Marshall had to deny Schick and Vladimir Darida.

Schick's amazing goal came from 54 yards, beating out David Villa's 46.5-yard shot for Spain against Chile at the 2010 World Cup. (Schick now holds the men's record, which he shares with Carli Lloyd of the United States, who scored from 56 yards in the 2015 Women's World Cup final.)

After suffering a slight injury in training this week, Scotland defender Kieran Tierney was ruled out of the encounter. Tierney is expected to be fit for Scotland's next Group D match against England on Friday in London, according to coach Steve Clarke.

Before scoring one of the all-time great goals in the 52nd minute, Schick had already made his imprint. A blocked shot in the Czech defensive third looped nicely towards the halfway line, giving the Czech Republic a 1-0 lead thanks to his first-half glancing header and Scotland pushing desperately to get back into a match they'd been dominating. With a two-on-two situation, Schick saw Scotland goalkeeper David Marshall 30 yards off his line and put his left foot through the ball as he crossed the halfway line.
