He who celebrates last celebrates the longest

Cue Beachy Head - I could never live with the embarrassment, especially if it was an important game!

EDIT: And to my uneducated mind it's definitely a goal, can't see any reason why not: the ball never came to a stop so it was no different to if it slipped through the keeper hands or something.

Of course it's a goal. FYF used exactly the same phrase I was going to, the ball's always in motion so why wouldn't it count?

I only asked because I got it off Bentley's and a guy on there is a ref and he had his doubts.

When a penalty kick is taken during the normal course of play, or time has

been extended at half-time or full time to allow a penalty kick to be taken or

retaken, a goal is awarded if, before passing between the goalposts and under

the crossbar:

• the ball touches either or both of the goalposts and/or the crossbar and/or

the goalkeeper

The referee decides when a penalty kick has been completed.

Yeah I am quite bored.

I don't see why, he's probably just trying to instigate a debate. It's a goal, end of. If the ball had hit the keeper and gone straight in nobody would even consider it - it's only because he jumped around celebrating.

No reason for it to not be a goal, all it is is a keeper getting a hand to it but not stopping it from going in. No difference from a shot having too much power and a keeper only being able to push it into the goal, surely?

Apparently it used to be no goal but the laws were changed/clarified.

Used to be:

NO GOAL.

Once the ball clearly comes forward off the 'keeper, post whatever it is deemed that the kick has concluded.

Now:

"The Law XIV International Board Decisions were stripped out of the Law book during the complete Law book re-write for season 1997/1998. This expunged the conflicting Decision No. 7(b) that previously stated, "the game shall terminate immediately the ball rebounds from the goalkeeper, the cross-bar or the goal-post". Some Referees, saw this as a clause that allowed them to end a penalty-kick as soon as the momentum of the ball ceased to travel forwards; and this conflicted with the new wording (and modern thinking) of 1987/1988, which is more aligned to the 'spirit of the game'."

Still being debated apparently the rules are different if it's during the game to a penalty shoot out dunno.gif

Definitely a goal. I'm sure it clearly states in the rules that the penalty is over when the ball becomes stationary.

It used to be the case that once the ball had completed its forward motion, the penalty kick was complete. Now, however, it is a goal.

If you didn't see the original clip, last week the keeper saves a penalty in a shoot out and walks off celebrating, little realising the ball's backspinning in:

His first error

Now he's gone and dropped another clanger, and then ended up substituting himself out of embarrassment:

His second one
