What a goal by David Villa

[SamsNCharge99]

From 40 yards out....IDC if it is open net, did you see the angle he was at

also the spin he put on it and power on it was absolutely a perfect shot

amazing the skills these players have

[byronbb]

That's not hard at all. I can do that.

[SamsNCharge99]

bull shit

40 yards out....from the sideline....I know there is no goalie, but 4 guys on field in front of him

you have to put perfect curve on it and perfect power

I would give you 100 tries from that scenario and you could maybe MAYBE make 1

[byronbb]

So you will give me 100-1 odds I can make it from 40 yards??!?!? 4 people in front of him is irrelevant because you are putting it in the air anyways. I played soccer for 20 years and I have scored from 40 yards with a GOALIE IN THE NET.

[Illy]

Yeah, come on. It was a nice shot, but keeper gave it to him. F^ck! I'm on Chile.

[SamsNCharge99]

you can write **** now

[SamsNCharge99]

shit, nm, you could for a little while

FUKK

It was a good goal, quite a few players would have missed from there.

[StraitShooter]

Goalie fuked up.plain and simple..Some guys may have missed that..seems like they cant even put the ball on net from much closer half the time

[cheesehead004]

That goal wasn't skill, it was all about composure and simply just being cool, calm, and collected. Players all turn into mental midgets at the WC, especially this time around in South Africa as we have seen time and time again only 1 round into competition. I give him all the props in the world for nailing that shot, most of these guys at the WC would have missed that.

To the guy saying he's made that shot with a keeper in net... LMAO at you comparing your pub league to doing this at the World Cup. Whole new ballgame. I'd give you 1,000 tries in the exact same scenario, you'd melt under the pressure and miss every single shot (okay, maybe one lucky deflection off a defender.)

hes a world class soccer player, who makes that 9/10 times. it was a good goal, but not close to being the best we've seen in the tourney.

[wikkidinsane]

That's not hard at all. I can do that.

Do you play soccer on a regular basis? Semi professional? close? how good are you. Because if you're just a regular dude ill lay 50-1 out of fifty tries u cant hit it in from that angle one time touch in the back of the net.

9/10 naw Maybe 6/10

[hustla]

vs Deportivo

[goofyre]

It was a good goal. He got real lucky how the ball game to him since he had to 1 touch it in. And it was left footed too.

[giants06]

what a mistake by golie; one mistake like this in next game and they are out

[sportfan]

its a gift , a bad mistake by the goalie , if he comes out he better clear that ball out of play

[Slim]

That 40 yard shot was easy. Nobody is talking about the missed penalty he had the last game. What an overrated prick.

[nevarc]

Good goal from a top class player. I've seen good players miss shots like that, but it's Villa probably the best striker right now alongside Drogba.

[diamond]

I also played since I was 6 years old. That shot is difficult under those circumstances.

That you scored from 40 yards with a goalie in the net, says more about the goalie than about you.

[flyingillini]

I have a future on him for the Top Goal Scorer.

[TurkzZ]

good goal, but more of a goal keeping mistake, haven't a clue what Bravo was thinking

[statnerds]

goal was average and nearly every player in WC could have put that one in.

however, not many could have made the play he did setting up the 2nd goal.

He's not overrated, he has something like 40 goals in 60 matches for spain

[TR88]

The guy is on fire

[skrtelfan]

Xabi Alonso has scored from further out!

[brumbies]

That 40 yard shot was easy. Nobody is talking about the missed penalty he had the last game. What an overrated prick.

I was about to mention this.

[suckerforparlays]

no body here would of made that under pressure in the world cup

[sweethook]

i dont know this . but IMO. most all the keepers are playing way to far out the net. seen it so much now. SOOO - i would say it $$$ thats got them out, yes paid to make sure other team scores ??

True. If anything, David Villa's cold blood must be admired from that execution. Chile should be worried with Bravo as goalkeeper, he has made only one save at the WC thus far, having not being too much tested by Hoduras and Switzerland.

[Wade Dwayne]

Goalie showed no faith in his defense and his Defender would have easily ushered the ball out. Still got a give credit for the composed finish and as for best goal so far it is hard to take it off honda.

[BL]

villas goal was everything but special IMO
