"Doing" a free kick is most definitely not the way an English person would say it

As a Liverpool fan, I’ll concede this was a decent hit

I know exactly where I was at and what I was doing on that day. Watching the match at work, so not exciting, but it's one of THOSE matches. Memorable.

I was at work for the first half but saw the second half during my lunch hour in my phone. Complete insanity. A few others gathered around my table outside a Starbucks to watch along lol.

The Barcelona tweet before the match is legendary “with only one goal Liverpool would need five! Surely we’ll score at least one”

That leftmost guy skipped it on purpose? Maybe keeping his skull sane, or miscalculated maybe. I don’t know what if he leaned right a bit?

Yeah, he ducked.

You don’t want to touch it if you can’t get enough on it force it off goal. If it barely skips off you it’ll change the trajectory slightly enough to remain on target but significant enough to throw off your goalkeeper.
Edit: Lol overweight Redditors that have never touched a ball in their lives downvoting from their mom’s basement.

He could absolutely have directed it away from the goal. He thought it was gonna miss.

Sorry but after going through your comment history it doesn’t appear as though you’ve ever spent ten seconds on a football pitch. I understand that Brits like to think that being British makes them football experts, but I lived in England for a year and I’m well aware of the fact that isn’t true.

So incredibly pathetic to go through people's comment histories. Don't you have anything better to do?

I'm not British you clown. Something you could find out from comment history.

Ah so you just hang out in UK subreddits all fucking day pretending to be one.
If there’s one thing worse than an effeminate Brit it’s someone that pretends to be an effeminate Brit.

Wtf is wrong with you dude. Arrogant, condescending, and presumptuous aren't qualities that'll take you anywhere good in life. Abandon such childish folly

Reading way too much into it. Just ducked it cuz it would hurt to take a power shot to the face -- maybe concussion even

sometimes you want to skip because any light touch will change the trajectory and result in an unpredicted ricochet for a goalkeeper. not when you are in the wall though.

Yeah, a great goal, but that game will only be an undercard for the greatest ever comeback by Liverpool in the second leg.

If we're doing free kicks Shinsuke Nakamura against man u in the champions league in 2006

You mean Shunsuke. Shinsuke Nakamura's kicks are somewhat different

One kicks footballs, one kicks AJ Styles balls. Fan of both tbh.

Man U
Careful, you’ll get incessant comments from MUFC supporters babbling about why “Man U” is offensive.

That poor defence probably regrets not using his face to deflect that on a Daily basis.

Defender for sure moved his head away and let it go by. Not saying I would have done different but it's not my job.
