Re: Aldershot pics now online
The keeper set his wall up at one side of the goal and he covers the other. He cant cover all of the goal, if he was in the middle he would struggle if a shot went to either corner.
The only other thing he could have done so he could stand more in the middle is if he put another person to cover a bit of the other side of the goal (but keepers only tend to do that on the free kicks which are more in the middle).
If he was in the middle he would really struggle if it went in any corner. The wall would be in his way so he wouldnt be able to see, therefore if he wants to go in the middle he has to change his wall around or have no wall.
Everyone would have been moaning if he was stood in the middle and the ball went in the opposite corner the wall was protecting because that is his job to protect that side of the goal in that situation. I really dont know how you can blame him it was right in the corner it looped over the wall.
Your speaking to a person who has been a goalkeeper for over 7 years and played at Burnley youth and stanley reserve level
Trust me its not his fault for that goal!!!
