It's the Sunday League Scholes going up against Jimmy Bullard in a special Volley Challenge! Who can score the best Scholes inspired goal?

Paul Scholes had a penchant for the spectacular during his glittering career at Manchester United.

Whether it be his winner in the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona in 2008, or his rasping drive against Middlesbrough in 2000, the unassuming midfielder certainly knew how to hit a ball.

Arguably, his greatest strike came in United's 3-0 victory over Aston Villa in December 2006 when his thunderous volley from the edge of the area cannoned into the back of Gabor Kiraly's net via the crossbar.

After a goal sent into Soccer AM evoked memories of that goal, Jully Bullard's Sunday League Hacks was dedicated to trying to replicate Scholes' famous effort.
