Mitoma opened the scoring at Molineux after collecting the ball on the left touchline. He cut inside before skipping past four Wolves defenders as he raced towards goal. Goalkeeper Jose Sa was then powerless to deny the Japan international as he slotted the ball into the bottom corner. Reacting to the goal on social media, Lineker tweeted: "Stunning individual goal from Mitoma. A thing of beauty. "Apparently he did a thesis for his degree on dribbling. Certainly paid off today." Another fan also added: "Mitoma is absolutely ridiculous." A third supporter also commented: "Goal of the year?" Meanwhile, one more wrote: "That was Maradona-esque from Mitoma." After grabbing an assist against Luton last week, the goal is Mitoma's first of the new season. He was a breakthrough star for the Seagulls last season as they qualified for Europe for the first time. The 26-year-old scored seven goals and added six assists in the league to help Brighton finish sixth in the Premier League. His performances have even attracted interest from treble winners Manchester City this summer.){kind=link}
