OT: The Goal of the Year?

I thought PacBell Boozer and some of the other footie fans would get a kick out of this (no pun intended). Pretty great goal by Grafite in last weekend's Wolfsburg-Bayern Munich match.

not quite as cool as that one,

but did anybody see the goal by Adebayor yesterday in the Arsenal game? pretty incredible stuff.

as a gooner

I most certainly did see that goal, totally different to Grafites but arguably just as good

Mancheza's against Aston Villa midweek...

…was pretty special. Especially considering he’s just 17.

Noonan. Nooooonan!

from a liverpool fan: that was an amazing touch and turn. Villa’s defense was not in the game, but that goal was pretty.

Re:what you said about ManU

(This seems like a better place to talk about it than the oiginal thread)

I don’t really see how Liverpool “showed the way to beat Manchester”. Don’t get me wrong, you completely kicked our ass, but it’s not like Liverpool, Aston Villa, Porto, and Fullham won/tied/almost tied thanks to some common startegy. Both of Porto’s goals happened because of bush league mistakes in Manchester’s defense, not some offensive brilliancy. When Vidic and Ferdinand were at they’re best, Manchester was pretty much unbeatable, and when they get out of the slump, we’ll be the best team in world again. When will that happen is a different question.

thanks for posting – a lot of pretty improvisation on that goal.

That might just be the cheekiest finish I’ve ever seen, after doing all that good work he decides to do that backheel rather than just make sure? Imagine if he’d missed! Great goal.
