Considering his woeful goal-scoring record this season, it's not surprising that Radamel Falcao looked pleased with himself after netting in training.

But barren-run or not, every striker would have been delighted with this incredible finish.

The Chelsea striker has found the back of the net just once since joining Chelsea on loan. His difficulties extend his troublesome spell that stretches back to when he joined Manchester United last summer.

But if the video below, which emerged from South America during the current international break, is anything to go by then Falcao still has the ability to embarrass any goalkeeper.

After putting the ball into the top corner, the beaming striker then appeared to seek out the camera operator at the training ground to ensure that his wonder goal had been recorded.

Watch it below...

During the international break, Uruguay defender and former Atletico Madrid team-mate Diego Godin said Falcao simply needs to be given a run in the Chelsea side.

"Falcao is looking for the confidence he had before his injury," Godin was quoted as saying by Gol Caracol.

"He is at a great team and he will get the run of games of needs and the goals will come."

Falcao: The Stats That Matter

Chelsea's next game is against Aston Villa on Saturday, a game Falcao is unlikely to start due to travel weariness accrued by the striker's involvement with the Colombia team.
