How the hell did the defender hit the ball on to the crossbar from Bruno's shot?!

[Giraffe]

Surely that defied physics or gravity or something? Lucky *******.

 

[Bigtomfu]

Erm, good defending?

Erm, good defending?

Incredibly lucky, more like. Good poistionning but it was an easy clearance that he cocked up massively.

 

[catfish]

Pure luck.

 

[dangull]

The laws of Newton and Einstein should answer the question.

He was quite lucky though as well.

The answer is that the football Gods have decreed that no Brighton defender shall score a goal this season. Hence the reason Bruno has had 2 shots hit the crossbar; Greer has missed the most sitting sitter ever seen at the Amex; and our delivery from corners and free-kicks has, on the whole, been gash.

 

[Easy 10]

I think its just the LAW that we must hit the crossbar at least once every game at the Amex this season.

He got behind the ball, tried to take it on the inside of his foot, misjudged it, it hit his heel and bounced up. It happens.

 

[sydney]

he turned his foot out like the village bike....!! bruno strikes the ball fantastically.......i would be letting him take more free kicks around the area.

Erm, good defending?

His positioning was certainly good defending though I don't think even they could claim that anything after the ball reached them was intentional.

 

[StonehamPark]

Just a wild deflection of the defenders foot. Lucky.

 

[portslade seagull]

Not sure he knew anything about it, he was just lucky to be in the way, I think if he was trying to defend it most probably would've been a goal
