Well said, just because I don't consider myself a true soccer fan does not mean I cannot appreciate astounding athletic plays, and that is what that was. I do wonder if that goal was "lucky" to some extent, because I've seen plenty of bikes that don't end up in the back of the net.
Just the sheer timing of it though blows me away, to have the ball coming in the air like that, to leave your feet and have the ability to control where the ball goes with accuracy...wow.
