Oh you beauty!: Goals of the week 8/31/2015

5. Alvaro Negredo vs Monaco This is a magnificent chip from the Spaniard. Usually, a chipped goal will be when the player is through on a break away and the keeper has come a little too far out. In this case, Negredo is under pressure from the defense and the keeper is well positioned in […]

5. Arturo Vidal vs SG Dynamo Dresden Sorry for the poor quality video, but this goal needed to make it on the list. Vidal’s chip here can only be described as ‘cheeky’. Well, I guess you could also call it magnificent. Vidal does well to make a run that leaves him completely open, but his […]

5. Andre-Pierre Gignac vs Gaudalajara I’m not going to lie. There was some bad defending in the lead up to this goal. Gignac is ale to nutmeg the defender with ease. All that’s left is a simple tap-in for a goal. Quality dribbling and a cool finish that is slightly lessened by the poor defending. […]

Oh You Beauty!: Goals of the Week 5/11/2015

5. David Silva vs QPR This goal is all about that backheel from Wilfred Bony. Bony has a great positional awareness, and is able to find David Silva happily obliges. His one touch takes him a little too far, where I thought the keeper would cut out the angle, but Silva does really well to […]

5. Philippe Coutinho vs QPR Coutinho just can’t stop scoring nice goals. It’s almost like he’s allergic to easy ones. Coutinho receives the ball from a well-weighted pass from Rickie Lambert and curls it into the net. 4. Alexis Sanchez vs Hull The fact that it takes a slight deflection doesn’t matter too much, since […]

5. Leroy Sane vs Wolfsburg The move is started off with a great run from Leroy Sane, who bursts into the Wolfsburg half in a lightning paced counterattack. I’m not quite sure if the moves he pulls to beat the three defenders was on purpose or accidental but it looked pretty all the same. Quality […]

5. Chory Castro vs Deportivo What a beautiful volleyed goal. The precision on the pass to find Castro on the wing was excellent but most defenses would have expected Castro to cross the ball. Instead, Chory Castro opts for the spectacular, smacking the ball first time in the air, rocketing it into the net. 4. […]

5. Thomas Muller vs Werder Bremen You can’t give Muller a second chance to get a goal. He’ll get it every time. The first attempt was set up by a wonderful volleyed through ball, but well stopped by the keeper. It almost looks like the attack is over when the ball is cleared to a […]

5. Ki Sung-Yeung vs Tottenham Your browser does not support iframes. Whether this goal from Ki is down to dumb luck, bad defending, or silky skills, it’s a fine goal. The angle that the shot is taken from is slim at best but Ki is still able to slot it into the net. 4. Jordan […]

Much like Mario Balotelli, Antonio Cassano, or Alexandre Pato, the conversation usually turns towards what could have been or what still may be.
