Tim Howard’s Ridiculous 90-Yard Goal Best Ever for Goalkeepers


Tim Howard’s Ridiculous 90-Yard Goal Best Ever for Goalkeepers.Tim Howard joined some legendary figures of the English Premier League's history on Jan. 4. He became only the fourth goalie in the league long history to score a goal against the opposition.

Just how was the legendary feat? The objective of Howard was also about 90 meters from his counterpart. The swirling winds caught the ball, it bounced in the air once, then found the back of the net. You can watch the video of the goal on the site of the Los Angeles Times.

Howard joined Peter Schmeichel, perhaps one of the best goalkeepers of all times, fellow American Brad Freidel and Paul Robinson as the only other men who have scored goals in the EPL action. The Daily Mail reports goal in the 63rd minute Howard was canceled by two goals from Bolton to win the game 2-1 to Everton.

Ironically, Freidel also played for the Men's National Team United States. The objective of Howard was also a bit like its predecessor in that its goal was eventually canceled by the other team.

The objective of Howard was as spectacular as it was bizarre. Nobody expects a goalkeeper to score, especially not so far. Unfortunately for Howard, his team ended up not getting any points. The objective of Freidel in the 90th minutes as he was advanced to help his team a draw . Unfortunately for  Freidel, it was marked on less than a minute later, the fashion debilitating. This goal also came on the ground of Everton at home.

Shooting Schmeichel helped Manchester United win a 2-2 draw. For two U.S. guards playing on English soil to have something in common with one of the greatest guards ever something special to see.

ESPN reports Howard feat is rare in Europe. However, in Brazil, marking the goalie is apparently commonplace. Rogerio Ceni scored over 100 goals in professional soccer in Brazil, mainly from free kicks. Schmeichel scored goals in Denmark before coming to the side of Sir Alex Ferguson. Mexican goalkeeper Jorge Campos scored 38 times in his career, including 14 in 1989 alone.

Howard was humble because he knows what it's like to be on the other end of such an objective. While his teammates attacked him, Howard has tried to raise achievement. He eclipsed another American who made his debut season for Everton. Landon Donovan was in the house loan from the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Despite other legendary strikes and curling free kicks, the goal of Howard was one of the best goalkeepers ever for simple reasons. The first is that goalkeepers seldom score. The second is that the distance at which the shot came from cannot get a lot more time without the ball is beyond the touchline.

William Browning played football for ten years growing up in St. Louis area. He was a fan of Sporting Kansas City since the Major League Soccer start the game in 1996....
