Football: Top 10 outrageous free-kick routines

Kuwait futsal team

A very odd set piece to say the least.

The Kuwaiti futsal team decide to head a dead ball (can you imagine that?)! The player heads it to one side and another player out of nowhere comes through and smashes the ball past a hapless goalkeeper.

Joy to the scorers, bewilderment to the opposition!

Over 40-years-ago, before free-kicks could be dissected and analysed in such great detail, Willie Carr and Ernie Hunt combined to produce a spectacular free-kick.

Carr flicks the ball up from the ground for his comrade Hunt who blasts it into the top left-hand corner giving the keeper no chance. Rather unsurprisingly, the goal won the goal of the season award.
