Good afternoon. Many years ago I saw a play on TV that I've never seen again. It was a game from the 70s or 80s, and the player was dressed all in white and had blond hair. I seem to remember him making a sort of very straight, long self-pass to his left, and the player ran to the right, skirting all the opponents, and received his own pass. This happened in the left goal of the field. The broadcast was in color and didn't show the entire match, just the play. I don't know if it ended in a goal. That's all I remember. Edit: The play goes like this: the dotted line is the ball and the solid line is the player. The x's are defenders. The drawing is not to scale and I draw terribly, but the essentials are understandable. I know it's difficult, but someone else must have seen it. I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks.
The only instance of a “blonde guy” I can think of passing to himself and scoring is this But of course he was not wearing “all white” Definitely not at this point of his career lol
Thanks for responding. It's not that goal; in fact, I don't know if the play actually ends in a goal. It looked like this drawing: The red line is the player, the black line is the ball, and the x's are defenders.
I'm sure someone must know the play I'm talking about. It probably happened during a Euro or World Cup match. Please help!
More details: The player was blond, with long hair, and dressed all in white. -The play was seen from the perspective of the stands behind the goalkeeper and quite high above the goal. -The quality of the recording leads me to assume it was from the 70s or 80s. -I guarantee it was in color, which is why I noticed the hair color. -The player (he's near his left wing, near the opponent's penalty area) throws a ball (I don't know if it's a cross or a low pass) roughly across the penalty area and, without thinking, runs at full speed around the edge of the box, skirting the defenders (I'm not sure if he gets in between any of them), and the guy, I don't know how he does it, but he manages to get his own pass. -I don't remember if the play ends in a goal. -I think it was a sunny day. -The drawing isn't very good, but roughly speaking, the play goes like this. -I don't remember where I saw it. Maybe a channel-watching program or something? It wasn't a complete match; they showed the play and moved on to something else. -I don't remember seeing another shot from a different angle. -At the time, it caught my attention because it seemed like a brutal display of power, but since the guy was wearing white, I thought it would be a legendary Real Madrid play and that it would be easy to spot. I was wrong.
The play is essentially something like this, but with several defenders and a blond player with long hair;
