Amazingly, on-loan striker, Sergei Rebrov, failed to find the net on 73 separate occasions.

Wilfred Leisure is such an excellent name for...anything

Twilight Zone...

When Rebrov was good, he was good; found a great site with lotsa goals to download; sadly, they only have those scored by either for or against the USSR, Ukraine and those scored by Dinamo Kyev; however, they got some belters when they reached the Champ League semi-final, so happy downloading. Don't forget to get Van Basten 88, and those piledrivers by Belanov and Rats from WC 86...

crikey that's a good site. Whatever happened with footofgod.com? did they manage to get anything back up and running after being shut down by Fifa? That site was amazing

It was; I wish I'd have downloaded everything. It's not back up as far as I know. Starnge that it wasn't mirrored - after all, isn't one of the virtues of the net that you just move things to another jurisdiction? Ho hum...

There was a Kazi Deyna goal on that site that I had looped as a screensaver at my last job, a beautiful goal where he danced around six players (one of them twice) before looping in a shot from the edge of the box.

They had things like lists (and videos) of the ten best overhead kicks and suchlike.

For a second I thought there was a Ukrainian team called Mentalist and got really excited.

Not as excited as I got seeing Rebrov score against the Arse, mind.

Supergoal by Jay Jay Okocha... (It's an Mpeg) The site itself has lotsa good uns
