JOE ALLEN scored his third goal in as many games for the first time in his career when he bagged a screamer in Wales' clash against Austria.

And the midfielder's strike in Vienna was something special - a half volley from 25-yards which rocketed into the back of the net.

The keeper had no chance as the unlikely goalscorer wheeled away in celebration after scoring a goal that teammate Gareth Bale would have been proud of.

And Twitter reacted in typical fashion as the Euro 2016 semi-finalists took a surprise lead against the hosts.

But the lead didn't last long as Allen's Stoke club teammate Marko Arnautovic equalised just moments later with a header.

Wales then took the lead on the stroke of halftime when the ball ricocheted off Kevin Wimmer and into the net.
