    Yesterday, we played a game against a team that really wasn't much competition. We were up 4-0 and I had got the ball pretty close in towards the goal. I was trying to be fancy and cross the ball to my teammate running in, so I decided to rainbow it. At the weirdest angle I pulled it off, but my teammate didn't get to it. It took the weirdest bounce I have ever seen, hit the left post (the same side I was on) came off the upright and trickled in. The opposing Goal Keeper was on the right side of the goal anticipating the cross. I remember the look on his face .. it was priceless. :D

    What's the weirdest goal you've scored, or ever seen scored?

    hmm mines prolly when i was playing defense, the ball was bouncing around in the third of the field my team was defending, i cleared it, kicking it has hard as i could without even looking. when i did look up i saw the other teams goalie tripped and the ball i had sent out of the back rolled into the goal lol.

    I was attacking through the center and when it was about 17-18 meters to the goal I decided to take a shot. Defence totally screwed up by just retreating in a flat 4 formation. My shot went to totally wide, to a goalie's left side. But somehow it deflected of one of the defenders and leaving the goalie sitting on his back hit the net with a wonderful spin :p .

    I remember the sweeper played the ball back to the keeper, and I ran to force the keeper, he shot it, I trapped it between my legs, the impact sent me to the ground, and then i got it out of my legs and kicked it in.

    Since I rarely score goals, I'll say teh weirdest goal scored on me...
    A guy hits a hard low shot from about 25 yards, and I get down to make sure I can at least block it, but then out of nowhere it hits a rock about 3-5 yards in front of me, and bounces over my head.

    My weirdest goal is probably one I scored with my belly. Ball was near the goal line near the edge of the goal area line. It was crossed into the middle and bounce in off my gut from about 2 yards out. Another goal was when I was 1-1 against the keeper coming in from the left. I decided to hit it with the outside of my left foot. I barely touched it but the keeper was leaning the wrong way and it slowly rolled into the left corner.

    my weirdest goal was when i was shyed the ball around 15 yards behind the halfway line and controled it on my chest and then on the half volley i cleared the ball up the park but because the pitch was wet and the golie was off his line the ball slipped off the grass and flew over the golies head hit the post and went in lol.

    The goal I scored right after I scored an own goal.

    My team was defending a corner kick and I was man marking a their sweeper. I went up the for ball and took a good bit of contact and ended up on the ground after the ball went off of my head and into our goal. Ouch, the sting. I was pissed.

    20 seconds later, we are kicking off. I go to the center circle with my center forward, we wall pass twice. The third pass from my CF is between the stopper and the sweeper just a little behind my comfortable reach.

    The stopper says to his sweeper, "You take it."

    The sweeper says to his stopper, "You take it."

    As I sprint at top speed, I say, "No, I'll take it!"

    Their moment of hesitation allowed me to the get to the ball and one-on-one with the keeper. I slotted and I faked with my right to the right post and the goalie took it. I moved the ball to my left foot and calmly slotted it behind the keeper in the lower left corner of the goal.

    As much as I hated giving up that OG, I don't think this quick-after-kick-off goal would have transpired unless the opposing sweeper and stopper hadn't felt complacent.

    It was off a corner, it bobbed about a bit and I had my back to the goal around the six-yard line. All I could do was a pathetic flick-on type header and it ended up beating the keeper or going in.

    Either that or when it was really muddy, someone played the cross in low and I slide tackled the defender and scored from it at the far post.

    I wasn't gonna say anything cause I thought a lot of forwards have had these types of goals - manhood goals. I've put 2 goals in my career using my weiner.

    My two weirdest goals were once when i was 8 i was indoors and wiffed a kick and it hit the wall. It slowly crept to the keeper but somehow he couldnt save it.

    The other was two weeks ago when me and the keeper were going after the ball. The keeper decided to charge me for the ball so we both collided and miraculously the ball deflected off of me for the winning goal

    I was playing keeper in tryout/practice/scrimage game, or something in U-13. I punted the ball downfield, out distancing both my team and the opponents, so the ball rolls toward the opposing keeper. He tries to be slick and just play it with his feet, misses the touch and the ball rolls in the net. I think I was more embarassed at the time than anything else, not ever seen anything like that before.

    We do something similar, always arguing about who takes the ball on a kickoff.

    Another funny one happened in practice today, but I wasn't part of it. We were playing offense vs. defense, a scrimmage sort of thing, I am sure most of you all do this once in a while. Anyways, we were offense, our job was to score a goal. Defense's job was to clear it past a certain marker, about halfway into the second half of the field. Anyways, we started with the ball, and we have one guy who likes to strut his stuff, showboating and all that. He's not very good, but every few times he'll actually pull something off thats not a step-over. He was running around a bit, and was able to nutmeg the defender. The ball had gone towards one of our forwards/strikers, who's back was towards goal. A defender was behind him, pushing from behind and pressuring the ball. The striker proceeds to nutmeg the defender with some weird back heel, and the ball gets passed to the first guy that pulled a nutmeg, who was running to listen to our coach, behind the goal. To his suprise he gets the ball, on the right side of the penalty box. He (according to him unintentionally) slots it through the keepers legs. They pulled 3 nutmegs and absolutely humiliated the defenders in a good 20 seconds. We could not stop laughing, even though all of it was pure luck.

    The weirdest goal ive seen was during a game where we were down 5-4. There were a few minutes left and we thought we had no chance. This was after the other team had just scored. So out forward decided to kick it from midfield. He does and the ball goes and right before it reaches the goalie it bounces over him and the games tied. We go on to win 6-5 in overtime. This team had beat us 6-0 in the regular season.

    I started at mid-feild and took it to the goal, and when I shot the ball I barely even taped it but it went midway up the goal then kinda took a spin to the right and went through the keeper's hands.

    the weird thing was it was a really slow shot and it still scored.

    i was playing goalkeeper for a team in the top division of our North Texas men's league. me and most of my teammates, and the rest of the lague for that matter, had played in college. thus, most players were pretty solid and had plenty of experience. i caught a cross and decided to launch a dropkick for a speedy forward to run onto. i hit it too hard and turned around, disgusted with myself. i looked around and my team was celebrating and my coach was yelling "man of the match" at me. i was then informed that my dropkick took one bounce, flying over the opposing goalkeeper and into the goal. we won 1-0.

    about a month ago my left footed cross from near the corner turned into a perfect chip of the 6ft something goalie

    I was playing forward and chasing a through ball. I couldn't catch up to it and the keeper came out and picked it up just before I got there. I stopped, turned around and started jogging back, when the keeper punted it right off the back of my head. It went off to the side and the keeper and I sprinted after it. I got there just ahead of him and put into the empty net.

    I also saw a goal recently where on a corner kick, the ball got headed toward the corner and the guy on the post stopped it with his hand (think US Germany from last World Cup) but no call was made. He then went to clear the ball, but he cleard it right off the extended hand of an attacker and into the goal. Either the ref was totally blind (obviously a possibility) or he figured both handballs were unintentional. Sort of an eye for an eye I guess.

    in high school, I took a shot from about 25 yards outs(right center). The shot went towards the right post. The keeper dove to stop it, actually dove almost into the post. Somehow, he didn't even stop the shot. His dive wasn't late or anything, it just hit his outstretched arm and went in.

    I scored on a corner kick once. The wind was blowing really hard towards the goal. So I aimed my kick towards the arc at the top of the 18, and it hooked all the way back to the far post and went in.

    Best goal I've seen, a teammate got the ball at midfield- maradonna-ed a defender, then did a little pass to himself around another defender, hit the ball from 35 out and it went upper 90. The keeper just stood there. Funny part is that we played club ball with the one defender and he said.. "as soon as I saw him taking the ball from midfield, I said to myself 'Oh sh!t' and knew we were going to lose."

    I didn't score this weird one, but i was on the field when it happened.

    It was a tied game in indoor league, (our indoor rules go that if the goalie scores a goal its worth 2 pts) so we were ahead 5-4 and the other team i guess was really desperate for a goal to win. they pulled their goalie into the field to increase their chances of scoring. one of our defenders cleared the ball, and it rolled into the goal box, but not the goal, it stopped bout 3 meters away from the goal, one of our forwards sprinted up beating all the opponenets, got on her hands and knees and crawled while pushing the ball with her head into the goal. :D Totally humiliated the other team, it was great!! :p
