Keshi’s goal - what actually happened?!

[EagleDay]

Sitting directly behind the goal I would have put money on it going out, it seemed to start a sudden spin and caught the keeper off-guard.

He has done so many 'did he mean it' clever flicks this season, don't rule anything out

 

[DonCorleone]

I was behind it above in the south and neither me nor anyone around me thought it was going in. You can actually see fans throw their hands down momentarily when it leaves his boot on the highlights - suspecting that he's shanked it wide.

As it turns it, he totally mistimed the strike with the bulk of the impact coming from his standing leg. But I'll take it

Sat in the West and like everyone around us I groaned, "scuffed that and the keeper is comfortable to watch it go out" then I saw the South start bouncing so I watched the ball slowly (could have gone to the concourse for a pie) make its way into the net. It was only when I saw the net bulge I realised it was actually in!

More of a flutter that a bulge from the net but same for me! As the keeper just stood there I was looking around for a second trying to see if linesman or ref had stopped the game or something! I laughed as much as cheered!

Quite funny really as there were groans as he hit it but it was like a crown green bowl as it just changed direction at the last moment.
...and hey presto 1 up

In the north and I was a “groaner” -then was like WTF

 

[Loco]

One bad game at Reading and every arse is on his case. Magnificent against Blackburn and replicated it today. You'll do me Keshi lad x

He said afterwards that he's been suffering from a cough or similar that has affected his breathing, so he's battling out there. Top player. But that goal

 

[look.its.luke]

Keepers view is blocked, so he starts to move to his left, gambling that Keshi is going to put it far post

He takes a step to his left and has got all his weight on his left leg, so can't readjust.

Smart by Keshi, shit keeping and defending.

 

[Ruperthoop]

Very surreal. People looking around in amazement at each other as if to say "how did that go in." A slight pause and then the euphoria hit .

 

[Cindertrackkid]

I expect the Nobbers will be blaming our piss poor pitch for the deviation.

 

[midfield general]

It was a fluke, but what a game to do it in!

 

[Tangerine Trev]

I was behind it in the south and was just about to shout "FFS, Keshi!" and then it went in

Me too , as we watched it , I went from " Oh Keshi thats a bit feeble " to " is that in the net ? " to " what just happened, how did that get in the net and why did the keeper not move ? " to jumping about like a mad-person .........

 

[PETER SPRUCE 1]

Thought their keeper had just scoffed a portion of magic mushrooms, think he was spaced out

my thoughts too .

 

[TangerinePeel]

Reminded me of Dobbie's goal at Birmingham in the play-offs for the simple fact that nobody except the South Stand realised it went in. Looked to me like it had gone wide then the South started celebrating

 

[pool1953]

My thoughts and everyone else I spoke to were, what the fuck was the keeper doing?

 

[dumdumdumdumdumdumHughes]

Keshi's explanation is the best.

'Finesse, innit.'
