Not sure about that. The keeper did well to close down the angle. He would have been slated for not passing it had he not scored.

A lot of strikers would've taken that on themselves, very unselfish.

He's going well. He was poor in his defensive duties for the Birmingham goal, got caught in a right back position and didn't really do enough. Great that he redeemed himself.

Nice write up in the Guardian.
An assist, a goal.... and an injury for Maguire. Subbed on the half hour.
Great to see he's taking the bull by the horns here. If he breaks double figures this season then he will go to the World Cup, provided we get through the qualifiers (big if). Hopefully it's just a knock.
A poster on a PNE forum said he "pulled up" and there are multiple tweets saying he had his right thigh/hamstring strapped as he went down the tunnel at half-time, so sounds like it's muscular.
So... a hat-trick then!

Importantly for us, whilst Alex Neil has rated Maguire as doubtful for this weekend's game, it's expected he will be fit in time for the play-offs.Originally Posted by The42.ie

Video of Maguire's goal against Brentford today here: https://streamable.com/mhsoz
It was a super goal; he ran the length of his opponents' half and slotted it home into the bottom corner of the goal from the edge of the box.
Not unlike Michael Owen v Argentina?
Very similar in height too but Sean is an inch taller.
Will he go on to score more international goals too?
Good goal but the defence did not look great, or did he make it look bad?
Unfortunately he ended up on the losing side.
Lovely poise and balance!
Hello, hello? What's going on? What's all this shouting, we'll have no trouble here!

Terrific goal and very similar to his first for Preston in a pre-season friendly - this is actually very important as it shows that he's the type of striker who can create his own chances and can repeatedly take on defences with confidence. Anyway, here is the updated list of Championship strikers' goals:
Daryl Murphy: 6 (all league goals)
David McGoldrick: 6 (4 league, 2 EFL Cup)
Sean Maguire: 4 (All in the league)
Scott Hogan: 3 (all EFL Cup)
Aiden O'Brien: 2 (Both in the league)
Joe Mason: 1 (a league goal)
Will Keane: Injured
I think what's good about him, from what I've seen online is that he can score a variety of goal types - fox-in-the-box opportunism; running off the final defender; a decent proportion of headers considering his size; and running at the defence at pace with possession - so hopefully he can keep it up and we can avoid a striker crisis next year
