Soccer highlights

I’ve played soccer since I was five. Still love the game and every once in a while I get stuck on YouTube watching highlights of players or just random stuff. Below are two videos of pretty sweet highlights.

The first vid is of highlights of goalkeepers making some pretty incredible saves. Anyone who’s played soccer for any length of time or at a competitive level know that goalkeepers are a little weird in general, and definitely a little crazy. You kind of have to be crazy to throw your body around like keepers do, and to stand in front of a netted rectangle while people rip shots at you. To me, a great save by a fully extended goalkeeper is one of the most beautiful things in sports to watch. The second vid is of some pretty sweet goals scored by bicycle, scissor, and scorpion kicks. Hope you enjoy.
