Pencil him in for the Puskas . . .

When you mix in some Maradona, a dash of Gemmill and a splash of le Tissier, you get . . .
. . . Golazo de Yohandry Orozco.
According to his wiki page , Orozco is only 5 ft 4 1⁄2 in. The bloke should be playing for Falkirk.
And now that it's on my mind; Why haven't Venezuela ever had a decent national side?

You Shall Know Our Volleys
Via the Guardian Footie's You Tube round up, the best goals that never were:
That overhead screamer from Keegan when he was at the Dell. A not so majestic overhead kick from Robbie Fowler Six memorable non-goals from World Cups past. How come no one ever put a contract out on Clive Thomas? Bryan Hamilton had more reason than most
Hat tip to 'paulhs' for the clips.
Still can't find Charlie Nicholas wonder goal for Scotland against Switzerland on YouTube. Probably never will. However, this goal from Dario Rodriguez for Uruguay against Denmark will always be easy on the eye. It's as much for his mate's keepie uppie to set him up as it is for Rodriguez's wonder strike. It's up there with Negrete's goal against Bulgaria at the '86 World Cup in Mexico.
There's no higher praise on this blog.
