The Crouch one made me go: why would you try that, from there?

I guess that applies to many volleys in that vid, but for some reason that one stood out. Maybe because of the angle?

My favourite Yeboah one is the one where it looks like he's about to volley it but takes a beautiful touch to evade a challenge then rifles a thunderbastard in off the bar.
my childhood memory is that he did those goals in consecutive weekends but that’s probably my brain playing tricks on me

the rooney goal is maybe not his best ever goal but it is for sure the most Wayne Rooney Goal he ever scored for the reasons you mentioned

It's because Crouch manages to look clumsy and inelegant whenever he tries something. See also that overhead kick he scored.

That Danny Rose volley in the NLD has to be one of the best goals in a senior debut.

That goal looked so loving unreal when it happened. I couldn't figure out how the hell that shot had arced because you'd think Lehmann would've been able to save a shot that came directly at him, and yet it doesn't look like there's even any significant dip to it.

Much like the Nani goal in the famous 8-2 it immediately looks like something's wrong and broken because you don't expect a shot like that to go in any more than you expect a Premier League defence to leave Nani in so much space.

Awesome goal.

He opened a new store, danced on tables, and sent merchandise flying. He was mobbed as fans tried to touch him.

“I loved it, right? It was a dream,” Donne says. “I’d get up in the mornings.… ‘Where’s Cyril going today?’”

The last place he would imagine was jail.

quote:

Outside the Vetch, 300 police officers mounted the biggest antihooligan operation in Swansea’s history, seizing weapons that included a steel axe and an item described in the newspaper as “a Chinese martial arts rice flail.” A stadium officer warned Cyril, “Keep a low profile and nothing goes wrong.”

Minnows Benevento, in their first ever season in Serie A, having accumulated zero points after fourteen rounds, are facing (former) giants AC Milan with new coach Gattuso on the bench at home. Everything's going according to the script, as Milan lead 2-1 in the 94'th minute. Then..

I miss football.

Also, later in the season Benevento record their first ever away win in Serie A... against Milan.

Ballers...I put numbers on the boards
I like how the other keeper is just standing in the box. I know that happens in regular shootouts, but it must be off putting for the keeper here. Once the keeper gets a touch, it's saved yeah?

I'd like to see this brought back. Not for a all competitions, but maybe for something like the League Cup. Just looks like fun.
