Here Is A Look At The Worst Goalkeeper In Soccer History (Video)

A Soccer Goalie Trick Shot Video? Why Not? (Video)
If a third-string college quarterback and an NHL superstar can have their own trick-shot videos, why can’t a soccer goalkeeper, right? That was what Lassi Hurskainen was probably thinking when he decided to grab a camera, a soccer ball and a pair of cleats, and put together a rather impressive trick-shot video of his own. [...]

Brazilian Keeper Scores, Tears ACL Celebrating (Video)
If I ever coached my own soccer team, I would be sure to implement the following rule: Goalies are banned from partaking in any sort of celebration.
