The opposite if a goal is the lazy underhit pass across your own defensive line that gets intercepted and then slotted home by a wily opponent.

Scored a beautiful left-footer on Monday evening during the indoor game. Weaved in from the right past three men, foot-to-foot toe-dribbling it and changing direction, before pelting it in the bottom left corner. Actually elicited verbal approval from opponents and teammates. Did piss-all else in front of goal.

btw I hit the inside bottom of the post of a small goal from abt 15 yards in a kids' playground full of kids the other day, then went back to my in-depth conversation about mathematics with one of the teachers. felt strong

frolicking with the young 'un down at the all-weather pitch, I cracked a mini-ball off the inside of the post, then lashed the rebound in off the underside of the bar, and down the net with a swish. A video camera was present but not recording that passage. I was heartbroken, the soundtrack would've been *amazing*

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 27 June 2013 14:31 (ten years ago) link

The other month in our Friday game I recreated Platt's goal at Italia 90 from that Gazza chipped throughball, where it comes over his shoulder and he hits it first time on the volley into the corner. It was fucking amazing. But, apparently, according to the opposition, I had just edged into the goal area, which is against our 5-a-side rules. So the cunts disallowed it.

Then tonight I ran onto a throughball, swung my left peg, and had my knee collapse on me. Carried off. Out for three weeks.

three weeks isnt too bad after being carried off tbf!

dj hollingsworth vs dj perry (darraghmac), Thursday, 27 June 2013 17:32 (ten years ago) link

Recurring injury, I know exactly how I works. Sadly.

My knee is so weird. With the aid of a spectacular new knee brace, I played tonight because we were a couple of men down; I thought I'd just make up the numbers. But the brace was awesome! Scored three or four, the best of which was George Weah-esque; picked it up in our area from a defensive corner, and too, it all the way upfield before rolling it under the keeper. In 25 degree heat on AstroTurf, that was quite an effort.

I've had it with this thread. From now on Youtubes only plz

You think you're George Weah, but really you're Said al-Owairan.

Ismael Klata, Friday, 5 July 2013 19:12 (ten years ago) link

To be fair, I went in pretty much a straight line, didn't pirouette, and didn't skin anybody.

Open goal ffs

dub job deems (darraghmac), Saturday, 13 July 2013 14:49 (ten years ago) link

I don't think I've ever scored a goal in 11-a-side, certainly not in adulthood, but i could count on one hand the number of games that takes in.

I play five a side most weeks. Not a prolific goal scorer, tend to lose composure anywhere near goal, but did score a satisfying side-footer from a little outside the box. One of the few times i've properly instinctively read and reacted to a cross and not just swiped the air.

That said, i do think i've improved a lot from how bad i used to be. I do have a bit of a problem with my big toe, i've done it some damage at some point in the past, so now when i toe poke with any force (or put a solid challenge in) i end up hobbling for a while. Contemplating bandaging it up to give it a little protection, otherwise goals will stay few and far between.

He went in shoulder to shoulder with the wrong 6 ft 5 doctor, who rather sheepishly diagnosed the damage afterwards

One of my teammates did his collarbone at fives once - gentle jog towards the wall and put up his foot to spring away from it, only there was condensation on it and he slipped and just collapsed inwards like a burst bouncy castle, only really fast. Thought he was a goner tbh, it felt like a lucky escape in the end.

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 29 August 2013 22:07 (ten years ago) link

My worst fives injury was a cunted baw in the baws. 20 years since and the memory is still vivid.

i was messing and tripped a friend, in the park, about 15 years ago. as he fell he basically flicked a hand to jab me in the nuts, barely any contact but whatever way he connected it practically blinded me with pain.

i'd say it was a one-inch punch if someone can lock the thread now.

'the flick of the sack' was a widely respected skill in my secondary school days out west, it was always given its full title and a tone of due respect was used

"Asshole Lost in Coughdrop": THAT'S a story (darraghmac), Friday, 30 August 2013 11:19 (ten years ago) link

Yeah, all the guys at my school spent most of Year 9 walking around between classes cupping themselves, so virulent had become the trend for the backhand flick as you passed each other in the corridor. Everywhere you looked there was weeping lads wheezing and sinking to the floor. The things kids do eh

In my idler moments I sometimes daydream about having a crack at the doucher who works at the desk opposite mine, just for old time's sake like

Ken scored a goal today. I was the schmuck who just failed to clear it off the line. We still won though.

It might help my credibility itt to note the appalling form and lack of goals the past three months

I scored two goals today where the keeper got hand to the ball but couldn't keep it out. The first one made me feel good because it was a nice shot and I hadn't scored in a while. The second one was from close range and I should have put it in the corner. I felt strangely unsatisfied
