Goal of the Week Competition: Round 2
By: Sam | August 13th, 2007Alright suckers, Goal of the Week is back, stronger than ever. This week in Ligue 1 provided more goals, and hopefully it won’t be such a runaway winner like Karim Benzema in last week’s go-round. Behold the contenders, in order of the amount of hair on their head, for all of this week’s marbles.
WENDEL (Bordeaux) simply curved a perfect free-kick into the bottom corner of Sorin’s net for this one.
MICHEL BASTOS (Lille) straight up scored directly from a corner kick. Also, Chris from the Roma Offside totally rocks.
VALTER BIRSA (Sochaux) got the fine idea to blast the hell out of a bouncing ball right over Pelé for the first goal of the match.

Dude, here I am thinking there won’t even be a vote this week because of that ridiculous Lille goal off a corner kick and it’s not even in the top 3?
I’m not voting out of protest.

Hey. Chris. Yeah, you. You mind your Roma nonsense and I’ll handle the fact that I almost don’t get your joke because NEITHER of Lille’s goals belong in the top 3. So there.

Taking a corner and having the ball wind up directly in the net isn’t enough to crack your top 3?
What the hell kind of standards do you have?

Wow dude. Just label me the idiot. I only watched the video of that goal once, and I was convinced that someone had headed it. Ha. My deepest apologies, I’ll change that immediately.

Bastos’ direct corner kick.
Just… amazing. It’s his second goal directly from a corner kick in two seasons. But last time it was against non-league side Sannois St-Gratien…
