VIDEO: Giles Barnes scores splendid go-ahead goal ... without looking

Reuters

Houston Dynamo forward Giles Barnes is, if anything, an instinctual player.

It's why the Jamaican international didn't even have to watch the play develop behind him to score this cheeky first-time, chip-shot goal, walking away nonchalantly and only noticing the ball being played to him a moment before he turned and struck toward the net.

Barnes' no-look golazo leaves the Seattle Sounders down 1-0 at halftime. To be fair to Barnes, he wasn't the only one not aware of his surroundings. Seattle's defense looked pretty clueless, too.
