There is a clip out there of a football match, the forward shoots wide but a ball boy stood at the side of the net pops up and casually throws a ball round the post into the net and the ref gives a goal

Saw an email video the other week of (I think) a play off game in an Italial football lower league. It was a penalty shoot out and the goalie needed to save the last penalty to win and his side get promoted or whatever, the guy shoots the ball and hits the bar - the goalie runs off chearing to his teammates.

The ball went right up in the air back towards the penalty spot and had backspin as if it had been hit by a sand wedge, running back to the open goal as the goalie looked on too far away to get back from his mates! They went on to loose the shootout!

Think it was o one of the online tabliods at the time, might be on youtube now.

"Ball boy scores goal in Brazil"


"Funny penalty kick (Termeno vs Dro)"

Not got clips, but 1987 cup final, St's winger Mark Elia dives in to score and loses the ball before it hits the ground. St's go on to lose by a point.

A few HUll and Sheffield fans might remember this one. Bramhall Lane, April 1990. Hull Centre Marquis Charles goes on a winding run from his own 25 yard line, rounding / beating several Sheffield defenders only to drop the ball 5 yards from the posts completely unopposed.

Think it was Mark Hughes for Southampton at the dell . Not sure it was against Leeds though



Happened to one of Neil Warnocks teams(Crystal Palace I think) at Bristol aswell a couple of years ago and he went apesjit
