Orient player just scored from the halfway line against Man City.

Superb vision.
Could be one of the all time great fa cup goals.
But I'm not certain if it's an own goal or not.

Had the better chances Orient to be fair. Goal of a lifetime for that lad....and brilliant from this neutrals point of view!!

 

[Muttley]

I think technically it's an own goal as it hits the bar bounces down and hits the falling keeper who pushes it over the line.

That will be a quiz question in the future…. Who won Goal of the Season and The Crossbar Challenge with the same strike?

Yes, it's gone down as an OG.

I do feel a bit bad for the orient player because it was a wonderful strike, but he's not going to get his name against it.

It's not even a shot on target is it?

I choose to believe the backspin on the ball would have taken it in regardless of it "glancing" off the keeper

Orient player just scored from the halfway line against Man City.

Reminds of a goal Chris Kamara was commentating back in the soccer Saturday days, it’s started 30 yards out, then it was 40, then it was the halfway line.

When they back to Jeff he said something like that was some strike from the car park

Alex Neal has got Millwall playing really well.

 

[NormanbyRed77]

That a great chance for the O's should be doing better

 

[Ratedr69]

Leyton o defend better than us

Meanwhile in the real world , fluke goal goes in off the keeper's backside via the crossbar

Watching the build up to the Birmingham and Newcastle game here.

How over the top is the pre-match stuff now? Fireworks for a fourth round fa cup tie ffs. Thought we over did it against Sunderland as well.

Anyways, moan over.

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Fireworks must have worked… 1-0 Birmingham!

Oh it’s fireworks, I thought it looked a bit foggy in Small Heath, and wondered if Tommy Shelby was busy down by the canal?

 

[Otto42]

No goal line technology? That’s mad!
