Congratulations, you’re now the goalie who gave up the longest goal ever and cost your team a win, resulting in a 1-1 draw instead!

@izzion to be fair, the defender fucked up.

Your chosen timestamp wasn't the goal kick goal though?
And rewinding to the front of the clip which is the record setting goal, it looks like a token variety "outkicked everyone and then it got a good bounce" goal, not sure how the defender misplayed that...

The chosen timestamp is the second goal that decided the draw. It's quite unfair to say it's the goalie who cost them the win in this situation.
Maybe I misunderstood your initial post and which goalie you're talking about.

He was referring to the goalie that allowed a goal off a goal kick.

Disappointing. I was hoping it had gone straight into the goal.
