Somebody has got to explain this stuff to me. I did not grow up with soccer, so when I see something like this, I'm unsure what makes it great. He kicked it a fairly long way, but in the final analysis, all he did was take a pass and kick it at the goal. It went in.
I compare this to hockey where a player shoots the puck from the blue line and it goes into the goal. I don't see that as anything particularly terrific, so I'm really not sure what makes this sort of goal in soccer different.
