HA HA! Just saw that one posted on a Swedish football blog. He still got the touch!

Quality indeed!
Was he sent off for that or for something else?

He had already been told to go into the stand for having a go at the ref (and the fourth official, I think).

It has to be said that Japanese referees are appallingly incompetent. Even more so than the goalkeepers. No, really. It is a shame as some of the football over here is quite entertaining until the refs get into their stride.

Haha thats brilliant, 1 time out of 100 but still a superb strike !!

top draw effort, we should get petrov or robinho practice that sort of shot, would be nice to see that in a league game.. should from the sideline and in.

All the more brill because he scored 4 times whilst Stankovic only did it 3.

I defy anyone to find more a more magnificent thing that has happened on a football field. Except maybe Gary Neville giving the ball to the Goat that time.
