Who needs feet? Frank Lampard probably envisaged that he would be scoring a diving header when this
cross came in during Chelsea's match at Blackburn on Saturday. But the ball was so low when it
reached him that he was practically flat on the pitch by the time he headed the ball to score the
[...]
Iran: where Vinnie Jones would be public enemy number one Two Iranian players have been suspended
after touching up their team-mates during goal celebrations. Persepolis defender Mohammed Nosrati
can be seen feeling the bottom of teammate Sheis Rezaei in the video above. Rezaei later squeezed
the backside of another teammate in the match against Damash [.
This isn't pleasant viewing. Defender Carlos Soto, of Argentina's All Boys, finds the head of
Newell's Old Boys player Carlos Diaz is blocking his route. Surely you don't expect him to go round
the head, do you? Giving a new meaning to faceplant, Soto plants his foot right in the middle of
Diaz's face.
1. Never mind Super Sunday, that was surreal Sunday. The football equivalent of a full moon.
Absolutely bonkers. 2. On Saturday night OTP could not have imagined a scenario by which firebug
Mario Balotelli could score two goals against Manchester United the following day and barely be a
sub-plot. 3. Given events at Loftus Road, [.
A world where Mick McCarthy would be content Ep.10 Emile Beckenbauer by Off The Post on Mixcloud As
much as we all immensely enjoyed the international break, the Premier League is back. And with it
comes the Off The Post podcast, hungry for goals, starving for stats, and ready to tuck into the
highs and [.
Back door entrance, that is Leicester forward Paul Gallagher made one of the more spectacular
footballing Twitter debuts when he signed up to the social networking site last night. He announced
his arrival with a typically bland footballer proclamation of banter to follow: "Hello, Im just
getting to grips with this twitter lark, thanks for [.
M-ad for it We recently featured the new Manchester City kit launch featuring Liam Gallagher. But
the YouTube video of the launch is proving to be a bit cheeky to some Citeh supporters. In some
cases the video is serving Google adverts offering Manchester United tickets over the top of the
video. Thanks to OTP [.
Backheel spot-kick madness We have all seen how stupid a player can look by opting for a casually
taken penalty, so fair play to the UAE's Awana Diab who successfully converted this backheeled
penalty against Lebanon. Ever the pessimists, OTP can't help but wonder what his team-mates would
have thought if he had scuffed this [.
Old skool AVB Andre Villas-Boas might have stepped into the vacancy that has never really been
filled since his mentor Jose Mourinho left Chelsea but back in his first stint at Stamford Bridge
the ex-Porto boss thought people were trying to pinch his job. This humorous archive footage shows
Anvilbo having a TV interview [.
A shady affair Fiorentina boss Sinisa Mihajlovic has been reunited with a special pair of
sunglasses following an emotional appeal for their safe return on the club's website. The Serb's
favourite shades were reportedly stolen during a press conference at the club last Thursday, June
23. The disappearance prompted an update on the Fiorentina website.
Footy fashion FAIL Having spent time living in Spain, I can confirm that our friends on the Iberian
Peninsula do have a strange penchant for interesting, often nonsensical, English slogan t-shirts.
It seems that even the country's football elite is not immune. Take David Villa and his 'Master in
Sex Education' t-shirt, for instance.
Arsene Wenger lets cheeky Barcelona scamps Carlos Puyol and Gerard Pique off the leash for two
seconds at Arsenal's London Colney training ground and they are rearranging the furniture. Barca
are training at the Gunners' base ahead of the Champions League final. Puyol and Pique took the
opportunity to remove a photo of Cesc Fabregas [.
The Off The Post podcast is much like the Oscars: it's full of inflated egos, often rambles on for
too long, and is ultimately just a load of hot air. This week we've donned our most ravishing
evening gowns to present to you the following: ear nibbling at St Andrews, a Turkish free-kick
showdown, Sam [.
Schoolboy defending, toddler tantrum Preston Edwards reluctantly entered the record books this week
as he picked up the fastest red card ever. The Ebbsfleet United keeper was sent-off after 10
seconds of his side's match against Farnborough. The ex-Millwall man brought down Kezie Ibe, who
was clean through on goal after a woefully underhit backpass [.
Like Luis Suarez, but sneakier This incredible incident comes from last weekend's FA Trophy match
between Blyth Spartans and Droylsden. It is a terrific save, diving backwards to tip the ball away.
Unfortunately, it was made by one of Droylsden's outfield players. Somehow the match officials
manage to spot the blatant handball and Blyth Spartans [.
Heads, you lose This US high school match had to be called off following a brutal challenge by a St
Margaret's player on a Saddleback Valley Christian School opponent. The ball bounced up nicely for
a 50/50 challenge in the air. But when the St Margaret's man realised he wasn't going to win the
ball, [.
Britain, Britain, Britain As noted by any number of Twitter wags (not WAGs), Liverpool yesterday
spent an absolute fortune to team-up a dream strike partnership of Lou and Andy. If anybody can be
bothered to do a less shoddy Photoshop, we will gladly replace that one!
No correlation between weight gain and effectiveness of silky skills Tubby Ronaldinho has proved he
has still got what it takes in this clip of him training with new side Flamengo. The Brazilian
maestro manages to score despite the fact he is standing behind the goal when he kicks the ball.
And we know for [.
Continuing our Guest Post January feature, please extend a warm OTP welcome to Ibracadabra of Never
Captain Nicky Butt. I often wonder to myself if there are others like me out there. Others so in
love with footy that it is their number 1 hobby/passion outside of (or including) their work and
family.
Ghanaian's travel agent obviously not a big footy fan Asamoah Gyan booked himself a relaxing little
holiday for the Premier League's winter break before discovering it doesn't have one. The
Sunderland forward was all set to jet-off and checked with manager Steve Bruce when the break
officially started only to be told the matches [.
A sore nose AND an o.g. on the scoresheet The defender in this Japanese High School Football
Championship was not taking any chances with his clearance and gave it some welly. Unfortunately,
the full brunt of the mammoth hoof was felt by his team-mate stood a metre in front of him. The
balls smacks off [.
Swearing fun at the Bridge If Roman Abramovich thought ditching Ray Wilkins would give his bench a
friendlier appearance, he had accounted for Aston Villa's late equaliser in the 3-3 draw on Sunday.
Even the members of the supposedly fairer sex were giving the Blues' dugout a rough look at the end
of the match.
