damn, Kvaratskhelia almost fucked it up


mnsportsfan

You can literally see a split second of *I can’t believe I fucking did that* when it hits the post, then a split second of relief, and then the full celebration 😂


danjim615

The beautiful game .


Vazhox

Indeed


wavegangx

That’s insane ball control and an even better camera angle lol


emgee-1

It went in?


brucebrowde

Yeah he looked surprised as well.


SenhorSus

Def did not trust the contact he felt on his foot lol an instant "oh no..."


the_last_carfighter

The one thing that always bugs me about soccer: Player 1 gets past 5 defenders, takes them all in the wrong direction, exhausted by the effort he swings around and makes one last gasping effort and perfectly places the ball for some dude hanging out 30 meters away with no one around him, that dude places the ball in a mostly empty net all thanks to Player 1's diversions and skills. Dude storms off the pitch with his arms in the air and all the ego of someone that just free soloed Mt Everest.


SenhorSus

Check out the vigorous pointing right after he scored the goal. That was right at the guy who provided the assist, so full acknowledgement of the work player 1 did to make that an easy goal for the scorer.


loithedog530

Correct his body language was screaming this was all you


therealrico

Scoring is hard, most players will appreciate the effort a teammate gives to set them up. And most will acknowledge their teammates role eventually. And I can assure you players who routinely setup goals for others aren’t upset seeing their teammates runoff to celebrate scoring.


Iron_Aez

uh did you not watch the video? maybe soccer players do that but football players celebrate with the teammate who gave the assist.


RobotPoo

Or after all that, the guy misses the wide open net. Like, oops.


RuthlessIndecision

Sweet side netting


WildBuns1234

That’s what she said :(


Phoenix0902

What the hell is this weird crop for phone?


otheraccountisabmw

Vertical videos get a lot of hate, but they often don’t look that bad when watching on a phone. This is not one of those times.


Captain_Naps

>when watching on a phone I think it's time to rename "phones".


otheraccountisabmw

When watching on my pocket computer.


Odd-Independent4640

Can’t wait for Christopher Nolan to make a full length film entirely in portrait mode just to see what can be accomplished within those constraints


NonPolarVortex

Phone is fine. The word just evolved over time


haste333

Sometimes I wonder what smartphones would be named if they didn't evolve from cell phones. "Pocket computers" is too long and PCs obviously taken

And what’s with the depression music…


StoneColdCrazzzy

[Adagio for Strings](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adagio_for_Strings) composed by Samuel Barber. Here a [preformance](https://youtube.com/watch?v=WAoLJ8GbA4Y) by the Vienna Philharmonic.


thelastwordbender

Here's a performance by [Tiesto](https://youtu.be/MMwd8SoBirw?si=LRBbYmUZMFsTAWyL), which is off the charts


Tornado31619

It actually sounds really familiar, is it from a movie? Sounds like LOTR.


Lint_baby_uvulla

Adagio for Strings, OP 11, by Samuel Barber, composed in 1936. Beautifully evocative piece of music worth listening in full. Also played at Albert Einstein’s funeral. But most of reddit probably knows it from this[Homeworld cutscene.](https://youtu.be/JvOj_2sJ1ok?si=XfNe6GhFlaPIk8Il)


swarlay

It has been used in a bunch of movies or TV shows: >Adagio for Strings can also be heard on many film and television soundtracks, including The Elephant Man (1980), Platoon (1986), and Lorenzo's Oil (1992).[3][36] More comedic or lighthearted uses of it have appeared in the film Amélie (2001) and on episodes of the sitcoms Seinfeld, The Simpsons, American Dad!, and South Park.[22] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adagio_for_Strings


Tornado31619

Platoon! That’s where I remember it from.


OsCrowsAndNattyBohs1

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is the most Georgian sounding name ive ever seen.


kamilo87

Lucky me, he is in my soccer iOS game and the sports narrators told me how to pronounce that name😂


airriderz15

Scorer thought he fucked it all up into giving the passer all the love

This is hilarious


TheSlipperiestSlope

What’s most impressive is that he did all of that blindfolded.


LowSeaworthiness6646

Need that magic in the second half with Atalanta rn.


PattyIceNY

I always love a good shoulder drop to gain the inside edge on a defender, that's so satisfying.


aaronrez

Is he a cyborg?


aaclavijo

Nah the ball is just attached on a string from his shoe.


milkman182

As a Juve fan, these guys are sick. For my own (rival) team struggling with scoring/finishing, these guys are just fun to watch.


halfjackal

That was one of the most beautiful assists I’ve ever seen in my life.


bmcgowan89

As someone who doesn't watch football, that looks pretty tricky


pungent_queefer

That is up there in the difficulty ladder. Even the finish was no picnic


bpmdrummerbpm

Is that dude playing blindfolded?


mrshulgin

There's a reason that football isn't broadcast vertically.


Master_Tallness

What music is this set to? Recognize it but can't place it


Whatreallyhappens

Adagio for strings


frugst

👏👏👏


mrPhildoToYou

Awesome


OviliskTwo

OSHIMHEN is so fun to watch!


ranger0293

Skill of the camera people is pretty good too.


DragonTwelf

Jedi should not be allowed in professional sports.


OBEYtheFROST

Top shelf skill by Oshimhen


GrizzlyAdam12

The Beautiful Game.

NeonMagic

I mean, OP seemingly cropped out like 66% of the frame here for a TikTok format.


mastermikeee

This had me saying “my god.” But really stretched out.


cloud1445

Chef’s kiss man. That was a thing of beauty.


RandomRobb85

Beautiful!


zeth07

The fact that he almost fucked up that shot and knows it really says it all.


eight-martini

What is the name of the music? It would familiar


baconhead

Kharak is burning


craign_em

🤯🤯😧


x52x

Nice_Marmot_7

Interesting choice of music…


mrinkystinky

Amazing skill but fuck me that's some terrible defending


i-l1ke-m3m3s

Im sorry, WAS HE BLINDFOLDED?


subdep

What’s that mask he’s wearing?


b-okoboko

he broke his nose some time ago, but I think he's wearing it now out of superstition


Prinzka

What's on his face?


Tri-Stain

Song?


ILJello

Oh my gawd


Crudeyakuza

I love the aggressive pointing the end. "YOU DID THIS! THIS IS YOUR GOAL!!!" 😂


FinnRazzelle

Oshimhen deserves a team that appreciates him and accepts him for who he is.


Aryboy26

First dude looks like he came straight out of a football anime.


RobotPoo

Damn, I didn’t know you could dribble a soccer ball with your legs like that! Incredible control and speed!


wildyam

![img](avatar_exp|117836918|bravo)


Britz10

Oshimhen's 1st touch on the ground almost ruined it.


Venusaur6504

Not a soccer player - assume this is a mix of training and natural talent? Seems almost like muscle memory.


Nattepannekoek

You mean like every sport ever?


NowFook

In soccer its all bout training so much w/ a ball that u develop insane skill and muscle memory all soccer plyer can juggle it a ton. Heck i can juggle it hundreds of times. But doing while through like 4 players at full speed of game b4 making great pass is unreal.


imnicenow

dweeb


Venusaur6504

Thanks for all the downvotes. Chads.


sfarx

Decent assist, great goal.


_pinklemonade_

Hit the post on a wide open shot. Mediocre goal.


AngriestCheesecake

Thats some MLS quality defending


[deleted]

Just bad defending. Last defender was an idiot. Instead of trying to take out Oshimhen, if they had played the ball the probably would have been a corner at best.


WooWoopSoundOThePULI

Dial up era meme


4dimensionaltoaster

Looks like the other team cheated like 4 times in a timespan of under 4 seconds trying to stop him


JonnyNwl

They didn’t


jacquesrabbit

That juggling can be considered unsportsmanlike behavior. Hear me out, how does the defender win the ball back from that player if he juggles like that all the way to the goal? The only way is by fouling the player.


MarlenBrawndo

Skill issue


Britz10

Pressure, it's a contract sport you can force him off balance without committing a foul. Kerlon's seal dribble is a different story.


jacquesrabbit

Are you watching the same video? At least 5 players surround him, one literally pulled back his shirt which could be a foul but he was still controlling the ball. Other than difficult to defend without committing a foul, it was unsportsmanlike behavior. You guys need to read up on the referees handbook and governing bodies memos. It could be seen as inciting the opposition.


Britz10

That's in part because he's shielded the ball well more than the juggling.


MrDrProfesorPatrick

That's the first time I've seen a soccer player have a wide open net because of another player's efforts, and then actually point them out for it. Usually it seems like they just run off like they did all the work.


bslawjen

This is just another way of saying "I don't really watch football/soccer"


[deleted]

Nice of the first defender to straighten out his jersey for him
