  2. If this is must see then what about the Drogba first goal ?
    I mean come on. Happy for the guy to win but it is not that impressive of a shot. Looks like he mis hit it. Trying to chip a goalie who is at the 5 from 30 yards away?? Seriously come on. UNIMPRESSED

    • i’d pay money to see you hit that exact same shot on a GK…. Just saying. what’s the over/under on how many times it would take you? without even knowing the o/u i’d still take the over… sure this goal was no Riquelme especial but considering the context (explaining in an above comment) it’s still a cool goal.

      must we really nitpick over qualifying it as ‘must see’ or not?

    • you know what else was crap GKing? the GK on Zlatan’s 40 yard over bicycle kick; it’s still a cool goal.

      you know what else was crap GKing? the goals scored by Wayne Rooney and Tim Howard in the past two seasons from a loooooong distance out. just because the GK misplayed it doesn’t mean it wasn’t a good goal.

      if a baseball player hits a fly ball to the corner and the outfielder mistimes his run and fails to catch it is it not a good hit by the batter? if this hit was in the bottom of the 21st inning by a rookie would it still not be a good hit since it was ‘crappy fielding’?

      you people need to get over yourselves and just enjoy life

  3. Tough crowd today.

    For context:

    Preston Kilwien is a freshman at Florida Gulf Coast, who made his collegiate debut in this game and struck a volley from well outside the penalty area into the upper-corner to win in the 89th minute. The goal was nominated No. 3 on SportCenter’s Top 10 plays for Thursday night (not to say that means much).

  4. This is the new gold standard for a “Must see goal” that is actually just a waste of time. Good to know #dunkcity has a soccer team I guess
