Hatem Ben Arfa may have divided opinion amongst Newcastle supporters during his four-year spell on Tyneside, but one goal certainly galvanised St James' Park.
The Toon were heading towards a scrappy 0-0 draw with Bolton in until Ben Arfa took matters into his own hands to break the deadlock.
With 20 minutes remaining, the mercurial French midfielder produced a moment of sheer quality, swivelling 60 yards from goal, racing past four stunned Bolton defenders and slotting past Adam Bogdan.
Can any other Newcastle solo goal rival Ben Arfa's against Bolton?
