I must be missing something about the third Spanish goal, everyone seems to be raving about it, especially the pundits.
What I saw was the player hit the ball, granted with a fair bit of power, but it hit the post bounced across the goal hit the other post and ricocheted in. Now I am sure that no one would suggest that was what the player intended to do, if it was OMG, it really was the best goal I have ever seen. So if he did not intend it, hitting two posts, resulting in a ricocheted goal, is extremely lucky in my book, so what am I missing, a good goal yes but worth all the hype, not so sure.
