Ooh Cheeky!
Video: The best corner ever taken!
Roma’s crafty dead ball fools Milan, the officials
Many years ago, I had the utter displeasure of watching Matt Le Tissier play his part in sinking the good ship Wimbledon FC by scoring directly from a corner. The lads at Roma, however, have just trumped Guernsey’s best export with the cheeky move they pulled off against Milan on Saturday.
It looks like Simone Perrotta utterly neglects the rules of the game when he runs towards the box straight from the penalty spot, but if you look closely, David Pizarro lightly taps the ball before jogging away, as if he is letting his teammate take the kick. It’s a cunning (and legal) move, but unfortunately the linesman failed to pick up on it and Roma were penalised.

Tonbridge Invicta under 18s once worked this routine, but we had the nous to tell the linesman we had taken the corner. Not that we ever scored from it though.
