Nothing worse than a staged penalty going wrong…

God it’s been a while since one of these…

At Goldfingers FC, it really did take a while for us to determine who was our main penalty taker. Berry and Diamo used to scuffle like Bury’s Steven Schumacher and Giles Coke of Bury FC.

Also, used to love the way Diamo thought he was Beppe Signori with his one step run-ups… *shakes head and smirks disapprovingly*

But now we have settled and Pano just “buries” them.

When “choreographed” penalties work, they look very good. However, it seems they rarely do, and when they don’t they look beyond embarrassing. So this goon from Uzbekistan has got to be pretty gutted….

What a goon…

Own Goal of the Season?

We love an own goal, except when Weird Ben piledrives it through our own net. We don’t like that. So we think this has got to be an early contender for Own Goal of the Season.

How on earth did he manage that? What was he thinking?

An obscene miss…

Ok ok ok….

A bit of a beration for steering to far from the essence of what this blog is all about – Football. So let’s get back to basics

After Diamo’s inability to play this weekend because he had the sniffles, we were pleased to see his legacy live on this weekend in the Maritimo v Benfica game. I give you… an almighty miss

Oscar Cardozo – that is ridiculous / we salute you. Love your “celebration” too.

The fact GFC drew 0-0 is irrelevant to this too.

Proper fighting – INFANT TAE-KWON-DO

As our regular subscribers will know, we do appreciate the art of fighting. Whether it be jujitsu, bare knuckle street fighting or boxing, we doff our caps to those that risk so much….

However, today we have seen what can only be described as the most savage, raw, blood-curdling, intense fight we have ever seen. Brace yourself for…

INFANT TAE-KWON-DO

Can you spot the Marine

We’ve talked on here at length about our love for various sports. And fighting is one of them.

So we were delighted when some bloke who is in a One Direction tribute band directed us to this clip.

It’s a quiz. One simple question. Which one is the marine?

Quality – as a bonus, it reminds us of the best boxing entrance ever.

Happy Friday.

The New Beyonce? Hmmm….

In a word, no.

As music lovers here at GFC Headquarters, we can’t help but respect Beyonce. But our admiration grew even more, as she completely stitched up one of her fans at a recent concert.

This was the fan’s biggest moment of her life. Face to face with her icon. Her idol. Her god.

And then Beyonce made her sing. It sounded like a cat being neutered.

Mass brawl (s) and raked faces

Two football posts in a row? What is going on?

Anyway, bizarre occurrences in the Asian Champions League semi-final this week, as Suwon took on Al Saad. With Suwon 1-0 down, they were pressing for an equaliser. A ball into the box was cleared, but the striker attacking the ball ended up having his face raked by the landing foot of the defender. It looked nasty and needed treatment.

How did Al Sadd respond? Booted the ball up the other end of the pitch and scored…

Cue a mass brawl.

Then cue another mass brawl…

You’re the ref – what would you do?
