It doesn´t happen quite often but when it does, it is always spectacular! Goalkeepers doing what a center forward should be doing, scoring great goals. Sometimes it can happen in the dying minutes of a match when your team is in desperate need of the equalizer or the winning goal. The goalkeepers enter unfamiliar territory in the oppositions box, working as the extra striker, hoping to head in a goal from a set piece, it doesn´t matter if the opposition team counter attack and hammer the ball into the empty net the other side of the pitch, the goal is vital. Sometimes, the keeper gets the ball and hoofs it up the field, wind playing it´s part, carries the ball over the opposite keepers head and into the net from the length of the entire pitch! No matter how these goals are scored, coming from a goalkeeper, they are all spectacular!
