Former Hearts defender goes viral with sensational scorpion goal - 'moment I'll remember for rest of my life'
The 26-year-old left-back went viral on social media after he diverted a cross into the net during the 3-2 win over Western Sydney Wanderers with a “scorpion” kick.
It was the second goal of the game for Garuccio, who joined Western United from Melbourne City earlier in the A-League season.

Garuccio signed for Hearts in the summer of 2018 by then manager Craig Levein from Adelaide United, but his time at Tynecastle was blighted by injury. He played 21 league games in total.
Garuccio did score a 25-yard free-kick against Inverness during his time at Hearts, but it was nothing compared to his goal for Western United.
