The effervescent Wes Hoolahan can craft spells with either peg, earning him the moniker of the "Irish Messi," and he was at it again during Ireland's World Cup qualification away day in Austria on Saturday.
The 34-year-old Norwich City midfielder turned and, on the far edge of the centre circle, produced a beautifully weighted through ball into the path of James McClean.
The West Bromwich Albion winger then made no mistake to give Martin O'Neill's side the lead shortly after the interval in Vienna.
