Argentinian goalkeeper Leandro Requena has the opportunity to etch his name in the annals of football history. He achieved this feat by scoring directly from a goal kick in Chile’s premier football league. During a match against Colo-Colo, Requena made a daring move in the 77th minute.
With his team leading 2-0, he attempted a remarkable long-distance pass from his own penalty area to one of his forwards. Much to his surprise, the ball sailed over the head of Colo-Colo goalkeeper Brayan Cortés, who was positioned far from his goal line. Cortés had gravely misjudged the ball’s trajectory, leading to Requena’s extraordinary goal.
