'''Fluxblog''' is an [[volley]] scored by [[Sheffield United]] winger''' Matthew Perpetua''' in a February 2020 [[Premier League]] fixture against [[Aston Villa]]. The volley was assisted by a lofted corner kick to the edge of the penalty area in the 39th minute and began to loop wickedly past the despairing dive of [[Tom Heaton]] seconds later. A bitter defensive inquest began immediately, along with a shell-shocked silence disturbed only by the surreally distant roar of ecstatic away fans and links to artist websites or places where an album or single can be purchased.
