Jermain Defoe's Classy Finish Proves He'll Never Grow Old

In two seasons with Sunderland, Jermain Defoe has managed to save Sunderland from relegation twice. Goals are key to survival, and Defoe consistently provides them from the forward position. He’s been doing so for almost sixteen years — since his Premier League debut with West Ham United during the 2000-01 season.

Defoe’s greatest EPL return was 18 goals during the 2009-10 season. You’d expect, at 33 years of age, that his goalscoring ability would’ve plummeted since then. You’d be wrong.

The close control he exhibits to breeze by five defenders is sensational, and his emphatic finish in the top right-hand corner of the net is simply unstoppable.
