[VIDEO PICK: Off the Post] In the Netherlands, Utrecht goalkeeper Robben Ruiter was left red-faced after being a bit too nonchalant. …
NEC’s Soren Rieks snuck up on Ruiter when the keeper kindly set the ball down and fed Melvin Platje for the finish in NEC’s 2-0 win …
Ouch. Always feel for the Keepers. Your mistake becomes glaringly obvious when they put another goal on the scoreboard.
I was reminded of a long-ago video that showed Georgie Best nodding the ball out of an unsuspecting goal keeper’s hands and then tucking it in for a score.
