This player should be fined for missing this goal.  If he had scored his team would of won the game.

The two man bicycle kick

In last Sunday’s Argentina Primera Division match between Gimnasia La Plata and Boca Juniors, something happened that probably will not happen again.  Two players scored a bicycle kick.  Maybe one had more of the ball than the other(maybe).   Take a look.

 Very impressive dunk. 

I received the official rules and guidelines for Juggling a  soccer ball  from the  Guinness Book of Records.  I was hoping I had a 3 hour break every 5 hours, but their rules are different from mine(smile).  I guess I will have to follow their rules, which is 3 minutes break every 12 hours and the ball cannot touch the ground when or if I take  that break.  Click here to read the official rules
