  • Wow, lighten up!! lol

    Just watched this video and I thought it was cool. Now, I am an AMERICAN that LOVES futbol AND football.

    For the fooball haters: As far as people thinking all the players are big fat and lazy, please Google the following names and you'll see atheletes that are in far better physical condition that any futbol player I've ever seen: Terrell Owens, Michael Vick, John Lynch, and for us older folks Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders

    For Futbol haters: The artisrt of futbol is incredible and it happens to be a very physical sport. The players have far better stamina than most football players and will run miles in one match. Want to see great American athelets? Google the names DeMarcus Beasley. Landan Donovan, my person favorite Claudio Renya (broken ankle .. ugh!), and for us old Kearny NJ people, John Harkes

    It's a big world out there and there's plenty of room for both sports!!!

  • impressive

    but he's not stupid. the ref had called the whistle for offside so he just decided to showboat, if it went in, he wouldn't have lost anything. you'd need pretty big balls to do that for real!

    • Rene Higuita

      His name is Rene Higuita. He was the goalkeeper for Colombia's national team and he used "The Scorpion" in a friendly game against England inside of Wimbledon Stadium, named as the Temple of Soccer.
      Actually, Higuita used that trick in offical games in Colombia's soccer league.

    • Naw dude.

      This was for REALS, I remember, I saw this match in the time it was played. Besides, how could it be offside if it was a direct shot on goal?

  • its funny

    how do americans call a sport, where you are carrying a ball nearly the whole time in your hand? football! i think thats funny, cuz now they can not use this name for the best and most loved sport in the world: football (played with the foot and not by hand). soccer, pfff, just americans use this name.

    • yanks

      whats up with all these yanks calling it futbal? mate, its called football for a reason because the whole idea of the game is to use your feet. now correct me if im worng, but the only time you use your feet in american football is kick offs, punts and field goals, so why do you call it football. maybe its the fact that it derives from 'soccer', but just got retarded and started to involve padding somewhere down the line.

      • this is why

        Most American sports are named after the ball in which is played in the sport, basketball is played with a basketball, baseball is played with a baseball, volleyball... so on and so forth. Football played in American is called football because in the begining of the history, the ball was not passed, it was ran or kicked. The forward pass was not brought into the sport until later. Some call Football, Futbal because of it's the Spanish spelling of the name. Not all Americans are Yanks either!! HA HA...

                                          Thought I would add, amongst all the childish taunting, that this Guy was the Columbian Goalkeeper Rene Higuita, and this is called the scorpion kick. Colubia were playing England, and he made this save from Englands free kick... The referee (Umpire) had already blown for another foul, so if England had scored it wouldn't have counted as a Goal... he also knew this so please make up your minds now if it was as magnificant as first thought.

                                                The game was a friendly against England 7 or 8 yrs ago and the linesman had flagged for offside as soon as the cross was hit otherwise he'd not have done it (his words)... nice skill though

He was the craziest and one of the best goalkeeper EVER. On that match (friendly between Colombia and Germany I think) he was about 40 years old... but he did this move in an official match too I believe

                                                        Responding to the comment down WAAAAY below, how would the goalkeeper know that the offside whistle had blown so quickly? No this is all premeditated and although this was an amazing save, Rene H made the biggest blunder of all in the 1994 World Cup when he stupidly came out to challenge an opposing forward for the football and lost, the ball got past him and the opponents scored and eventually beat Columbia to advance.
                                                        Rene H is surely a colorful goalie but as far as vastly talented goes? I beg to differ!
