Che storia figata, ragazzo!



This man is playing goal on an official match in the concacaf equivalent of the Europa League, he is my hero even though he already conceded 4 goals in 40 minutes. Representation matters!

It’s honestly not even shithousery. He was walking back towards the center with the ball before Salah and others tried taking the ball from him. The team who just conceded has the right to the ball, and there’s even specific guidance in the laws against the scoring team taking the ball. Useless Michael Oliver meanwhile just letting them go at it and risking needless confrontation between players.

You shouldn't be allowed to touch the ball when it's clearly not yours. Like in this instance or when it's a free kick and someone picks it up and takes ages to throw it to the player wanting to take it. Straight yellow.

Fond memories of the Stevie Gerrard special move of 'go into a 50/50 challenge, fall on the ball and move about 10 yards up the pitch as you respot the ball for the free kick you've basically awarded yourself'

Lol, come on. Pedantic poo poo aside, he's purposefully wasting time. That is one of the core tenets in the ethos of shithousery.

he was certainly *going* to waste lots of time, but as far as i could tell he really hadn't gotten started before salah decided to jump in and give him a hand

fernandes is not winning any fair play awards for this game regardless, though

Someone posted a passage of play from a chelsea vs arsenal game from this period and it was complete dog poo poo football. That being said these are some incredible goals.

Doing a big phwoar at all of these again but especially the Essien channeling Roberto Carlos one

This was before football was ruined by statisticians who could tell us that “actually there’s a bigger chance of a goal if you pass it into the box”.

Possibly, but I’d rather go phwoar when someone’s thundercunting it.

I vividly remember that Chelsea vs Arsenal game and I would not call it dogshit in the same way that 90s games were cloggers battering each other. That game with the Essien goal was one where Arsenal were on the verge of winning, but as the clock wound down Chelsea just started playing with urgency. That Essien goal was near the end of regular time and it turned what everyone thought was an unlikely win for Arsenal into a draw. It was the closest Wenger ever got to beating Mourinho at Stamford Bridge during his glory days at Chelsea.
