Goal from a backpass!

[Qwerty]

A Sticky Situation at Guiseley V Braintree yesterday.

What do you make of this?

The player has shot, the commentator has got that totally wrong. If he was gonna jut pass back he would have side footed it.

 

[FairwayDodger]

Terrible sportsmanship and, yes, it was a deliberate shot all the way. He saw the keeper off his line (in anticipation of the backpass) and lobbed it over him.

Just highlights why you should never play the ball out for an injured opponent. The ref can stop play if it's a serious injury.

As someone who spends hours watching this level of football it wouldn't surprise me if he did intend to lob it back to the keeper and it all went Pete Tong

The right thing to do would be to allow the oppo to walk a goal in.

Looks like he meant it to me, especially when he put his arms up to celebrate

 

[Norrin Radd]

certainly a bizarre moment and one that will live in the memory of all concerned for a long long time. did he mean it ,only he will know for sure but that isnt the dilemma ,what could have been done differently ,i really dont know as he didnt break the rules of football. maybe what has been suggested by piece would have been the way to go .maybe the ref could have blown for a foul throw or something .one thing im glad about is that it wasnt me that had to decide either way.

The keeper writhing on the floor reminded me of 'The Fish' in this.. The best goal celebration ever

Just sums up the lack of sportsmanship in football these days - win at all costs

I like this sort of pre-planned celebration

 

[louise_a]

That's a brilliant goal celebration

He must Rate the Braintree Keeper if he thought he could've saved it :rofl:

Just trying to worm his way out of bad sportsmanship!

Happened in a game a few years ago, the captain of the scoring team quite rightly told his players to stand aside at the re-start and let the other side score one back. As a side note that horrible little ****house Diego Costa tried to score from one yesterday, luckily the ref saw what was happening and blew for the worlds softest foul against him, probably the only decision he got right all game

Manager trying to justify his poor decision. He should have allowed a walk in goal it's as simple as that.


His team were gifted the ball due to injury, they then scored when the other team weren't being competitive. Tantamount to cheating.

Football has this solution when this occurs, can't see what all the fuss was about.

If a precedent has been set that the above happens then let it, otherwise, for kick outs due to injury the ball should just be rolled out for a GK when thrown back in.

 

[Rooter]

lets be honest though, the keeper made zero effort to stop it. i would have let the goal stand.
