I'm not a huge soccer fan, but this goalie looks like frikken Superman running down the field compared to the other players. <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6liJjDg9FLc?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6liJjDg9FLc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
HATS OFF. BEAUTIFUL save. He is FAST (that's what she said). I must say, though... once the corner kick pass IN failed, he should have been back. Rooney: "at first I :grin: ... but then I . "
Don't Goalies have to do the same drills as the other Soccer players? So they essentially have the same foot speed and skills of his other teammates. That was a great video. Guy wasn't even in the frame and still beat Rooney to mid field. There had to be a little bit of adrenaline in that run. That was an "Oh s*** my contract is in jeopardy!" Run.
That was the soccer equivalent of this: <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aS25dibHOR0?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aS25dibHOR0?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
Good call.

Love the two videos of Hakeem blocking the layups. I remember both well and they are probably my two favorite Dream rejections. Makes me miss the Dream-Gene Peterson-Calvin Murphy era
^ If he saved it, it DID change the outcome, sir... being that it was the same score before and after the intervention is cool. Do you fail to see that? Does it make the outcome less important? People will remember this for a long time, I think. So was I! SRSLY. I was.
No. Rooney (in red) saw the empty net, so he tried to lob it in from a little past midfield. Would have made it in too, if the goalie had been a step slower. The guy in blue might have had a chance to save it too, but it would have taken a spectacular play, since it looked like he had a lot of momentum going towards the net.
