Imagine even attempting this so early in the game 🤯 #UCL

I’ve seen more action in just 25 seconds of this clip than i have watching 90 minutes of Arteta ball

We need to talk about how strong the goal keeper's header is. Imagine nodding a ball from your 18 yard box to the midfield

This is real football, gungho full throttle immediately after kickoff off. Ball switched 5 times both teams going for it right away and a goal is scored all in 25 seconds 🤩

@BTraders99837 Stankovic against Manuel Neuer, champions league 2011 group stage.

There was sth special in UCL back then, you can literally feel this stadium

You see that volleying, it's supposed to be nominated as one of the best goals in the champions league

@ElPrincipe22__ And his son is already balling 🖤💙😍#stankovic

Stanković seeing the Neuer clearance drop like a gift from the football gods and volleying it from halfway on the first touch...🔥

nah, trying that early in a Champions League game is pure ego. half the time it ends up like our first touch in the final third.

This was a no risk play. The outcomes were either a goal or an opposition goal-kick. The midfielder had an open goal, albeit 65 metres away. Goalkeeper couldn’t make a save with his hands because he’d be red-carded. I’d be questioning the defence for being so lax.

Athletico MADRID beating ARSENAL silly

He didn’t even hesitate.

stankovic saw an empty net from the halfway line and just said why not, that kind of audacity is built different

When you shaped like this you are bound to score…

That was a Blast 💥

...and the crowd went wild 🗣️

Shoot! 🫶you deserve something beautiful tonight🥰

born ready, as if he was expecting the keeper to send it back to him

Look at that football. Fast, attacking football

Can live with that considering the end result... #S04

Not that ridiculous, the keeper was off his line

Seems like something you'd attempt if you got that chance regardless of when in the game it is

Cambiasso had just one mission,,, lobby the ball........

Football no sweet again, how many of ur fav midfielders can attempt this

Can only be Neuer.

Btw in the end Schalke crushed Inter 5-2 😅

🤯

They were gassed at this point, running on fumes of glory achieved the season before. Got blown away here 5:2 by a pretty decent but not great Schalke side, after Deki’s stunner. Unlike Vidić, another great Serbian player of the era, Deki is not cool off the pitch.

Top 3 goal all time. Remember watching it on television. I barely watched football at the time. It was meant to be.

this is one of the best starts i've ever seen in a match from both teams. free flowing football

What the hell has the time of the game got to do with it?

Unbelievable 😱
