THE Greatest Own Goal EVER?!?!?

Just had to show it. I saw it on Sky Sports Soccer Am show yesterday and its got to be seen to a wider audience, seriously.

Imagine you are the goalkeeper who saves the penalty brilliantly as you are minutes away from extra-time in a cup-tie and one of your defenders does this!!!



Watch how many players drop to the floor as if they have been 'platooned,' and check out the player who puts his shirt over his head in shame.

Classic

That's Hungarian Football for you.

A Tale of Two Nigerians

ODEJAYI VILLIAN





KANU HERO


Two Nigerian footballers plying their trade for Portsmouth and Barnsley respectively have 'stole' the FA Cup headlines this weekend when both FA Cup semi-final finals (sponsored by E.ON) were played at the 'new' Wembley for the very first-time.


Firstly Portsmouth's Kanu scored the only goal in their win against WBA on Saturday, controversary again that there was a handball in the build-up to the goal.


Secondly in today's semi-final the hero of Barnsley's battling quarter-final 1-0 win over Chelsea Kayode Odejayi, squandered a clear-cut chance when on a breakway and on his own, with only Cardiff's Enckleman to beat, beat Enckleman but also beat Enckleman's left-hand post.


How he missed only Odejayi knows and no wonder Barnsley's manager Simon Davey got the 'shrinks' in during the week to sort out Odejayi's head. Its obvious they didn't do a very good job!!!


So without extra-time and without penalties, both cup-ties were settled inside 90 mins by the same score, 1-0 and we now know that Portsmouth will take on Cardiff City at Wembley on Saturday 17th May 2008.


I wrote earlier about the Wembley 'corporates' bothering to turn up to both semi-final games - and they did in style. Saturday's game attracted a crowd of over 83,000 and todays crowd was just under 83,000.

So well done!


So now both Portsmouth and Cardiff fans will have to do battle to get those priceless FA CUP Final tickets when last year's finallists Chelsea and Man Utd only received 25,000 each!!

Ebbsfleet Utd Crash at Kidderminster


My first game as a ONE VOTE and ONE SHARE member of Ebbsfleet Utd via MYFOOTBALL.CO.UK ended in disaster as the men from Stonebridge Road crashed and burned away to Kidderminster Harriers tonight.

The result was 2-1 to Kidderminster.
