Roberto Carlos Scores Fantastic Goal from Corner Kick



Wow, what a fantastic goal... scored from a corner kick! Kudos to Roberto Carlos.

He has many brilliant goals to his name and he keeps adding them. In a recent match between Corinthians and Portuguesa, the Brazilian veteran stunned the goalkeeper with a sweetly taken kick from the corner.

We don't often see such goals so let's thank the defender and goalie for failing so terribly.

Villarreal's Cani Scores Bizarre Goal from Half way Line



Villarreal's Cani has gained notoriety for throwing water bottles at Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho. Now he adds another feather to his cap by by scoring from the halfway line against Osasuna.

Only a few minutes after Osasuna equalized to make it 1-1 just after halftime, Cani launched this perfectly placed ball over the head of backtracking goalkeeper Ricardo to put Villarreal back on top on their way to a 4-2 win on Saturday.

Great awareness and ability, Cani! But the lad wouldn't even have been on the pitch had the red card for throwing a bottle at the celebrating Mourinho from the Villrreal bench last Sunday not been reduced to a yellow card on appeal.
