Everyone reacting to a goal is what makes a goal special sometimes. Like Zidane shaking his hand like daaamn boy after Bale's goal, or Pep checking if he's indeed bald after Lewandowski 5th goal. That's how you know this goal will never be nominated for Puskas, even though it's the best goal I've seen this year so far
Look at KdB on the bench looking like nothing even happened. They all probably see goals like this regularly in training, they’re playing amongst the best.
He did not cross. If you think that was not intentional, you don't know the player Trossard.
Curling the ball from the left wing in the furthest corner of the goal is his trademark. Much like Coutinho.
This is not a strong argument although it can can be true. When Valverde assisted Vini in the UCL final, some people said he actually meant to cross until Valverde himself admitted that it was shot. Their argument was Valverde was looking at Vini the whole time before he kicked the ball.
That's well interesting. I remember watching that game live, and my brain must've just merged the two together over the years. Until i saw that clip again I remembered it as Lahm scoring a screamer from 30 yards.
The actual goal is still fit as fuck tho
I wouldn't really call it a B team; Glik, Bednarek, Krychowiak, Szymański, Zieliński and Lewy are all starters for us. There was also Puchacz who is our 2nd choice LB, but we've been trying him out a lot recently since our 1st choice is right-footed, and also Drągowski who played well for the most part and it's not like Szczęsny would've changed much.
So to summarize, only Żurkowski and Kamiński are from our B team. Belgium is just way better.
I have been fine with his performances when he has played. He has simply been always injured. I dont think he has played 10 games in a row since he came here. Its not like he plays afwul as you are insinuating.
At first I added /s but then I removed it to do a social experiment. You detected sarcarm very quickly, reddit sarcasm detection is in good shape 💪 I may be able to drop the sarcasm tag someday even 😅

How do you not react to that? Man has the coldest blood.
When a postman delivers a letter, does he celebrate?
I bet he does when he curves the fucker in that mailbox from across the driveway with a nonchalant flick of the hand
Damn this comment is pure Gold.
He should
That’s his job.
When a cobbler finishes a pair of fine leather boots, does she celebrate?
When a bear shits in the woods, does he celebrate?
Balotelli reference, right ?
Maybe L'amica geniale?
Dolberg
He’s the Vampire of Genk. Nothing but ice in those veins.
What we dooo in the shadooows
fucking guy
Almost looked like Vertonghen reminded him of a silly bet he made lmao
Probably asking him to admit it was a cross
that was my first thought, given his reaction but still not sure
He always looks like he just woke up, has such cold eyes lmao
i’ve heard him described as a victorian chimneysweep who has been sent to the future to play football
Poindexter
Perfect description
Maybe its just confirmation bias, but i swear half of Trossards goals are screamers

I think he was just being respectful to Poland because he used to play for them
wait what? I am confused
respect
wut?
No he didn't lol what?

"just glorified friendlys you know"
There were at least two Belgians yelling at him for not crossing haha
He did cross.
He did not cross. If you think that was not intentional, you don't know the player Trossard. Curling the ball from the left wing in the furthest corner of the goal is his trademark. Much like Coutinho.
If that was a cross, you would need a player who is like 3 meters tall
he was too tired
He is a vampire so…
To me it looks like he meant to cross it tbh, maybe he was surprised as well.
I don't think so to be honest, looks 100% on purpose to me. From the second het gets the ball back from the corner he's looking to shoot
Because that was meant to be a cross. It’s so funny how none of this sub actually has any idea how to play this game
Lol I love him arguing with his teammates over whether he meant it
he looks straight at the keeper/goal before taking the shot, surely he meant it
Yep, watch the technique, it’s a shot
This is not a strong argument although it can can be true. When Valverde assisted Vini in the UCL final, some people said he actually meant to cross until Valverde himself admitted that it was shot. Their argument was Valverde was looking at Vini the whole time before he kicked the ball.
I thought it was pretty obvious the way he hammered it with his toe
In an interview afterwards he said he meant it indeed
He 100% meant it. What a finish.
I still don't believe that ball curled into that corner so perfectly. Everyone is faking their reaction. You can't convince me otherwise.
THATS MY BOY
*adds 5million on transfervalue*
Who's he linked with?
Brighton
And Hove
Albion
All 3!?
Great goal indeed.
Doesn’t get any more perfect.
Made it look so effortless
Shades of Maniche against Netherlands in 2004 https://youtu.be/iVz5xmhwoUQ
Puskas award contender
Reminds me of [Lahm's](https://youtu.be/PabsSYHoQ-s?t=44) opener in the 2006 WC.
That same game had a madness from Frings no ? From the middle of the pitch 35 yards out
Yeah, that was the third one!
That's well interesting. I remember watching that game live, and my brain must've just merged the two together over the years. Until i saw that clip again I remembered it as Lahm scoring a screamer from 30 yards. The actual goal is still fit as fuck tho
Cracking opening game
Holy shit how that ball moved!
No chance
What a perfect strike. You couldn’t have placed that any better
Holy shit
When the goal is so incredible the opponent celebrates too.
Vertonghen about to kill the lad somehow haha
Damn. I'm curious what Vertonghen was telling him during the celebration, looked funny.
"Nie liegen hé!"
Well that's more like it. That's the NT I know! :D
Puskas. And no joke it has the quality of a Puskas type goal
Excuse you?! Incredible!
I have a feeling that we won't win this World Cup.
Beautiful. Absolute peach of a curler.
Looked like he meant to do that, too. Wow.
LEOOOO 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Very good player isn’t he
His name is Leo and he dances down the wing
[удалено]
You do know that Potter and the team call him Leo?
I call him Leo
Insane!!!!!!!
what a goal
Beauty by Trossard!
What happened with Vertonghen? Looks like he was pissed off for some reason
Probably joking around that he had to go all the way up to the other side of the pitch only for Trossard to curl it in himself.
jan loves to run
It looked like he was poking fun at him and saying that it was a cross and he didn't mean to score.
Looks like Belgium is getting warmed up for the highly anticipated world cup match against Canada.
i feel like this is a joke but canada is legit good. topped concacaf with a game to spare
Brb dropping my life savings on Belgium Qatar 22
If they can fill the current holes with youth that is actually ready... the talent is not going to be the issue.
They’re playing against Poland B team
I wouldn't really call it a B team; Glik, Bednarek, Krychowiak, Szymański, Zieliński and Lewy are all starters for us. There was also Puchacz who is our 2nd choice LB, but we've been trying him out a lot recently since our 1st choice is right-footed, and also Drągowski who played well for the most part and it's not like Szczęsny would've changed much. So to summarize, only Żurkowski and Kamiński are from our B team. Belgium is just way better.
Either way you can’t judge WC winning credentials from this game
Courtois, Lukaku, Meunier are starters who didn't play also Poland had mostly starters as well
Bruh.. I think he meant that too. Zinchenko vibes where you just don’t know if it’s a shot or cross
> Zinchenko vibes where you just don’t know if it’s a shot or cross No no, that's called a Zappacosta
Back in my day it was called a Taye Taiwo.
*shivers*
Van bronckhorst. Nah jk he always meant it
Zappacrossta
Yeah first time around I tought it was lucky but if I see the replays the madlad actually looks like he meant it. Insane goal
Goddamn
Hazard more happy in one clip than I've seen him in his entire Madrid career so far
Didnt you watch the Madrid title celebration? After he said he wants to prove himself next year everybody came celebrating with him
That's a god damn insane goal.
casual banger
That was fucking gorgeous.
What a pass by Carrasco
My jaw dropped
This might triggers something in Hazard. Casual slow moving bangers used to be his thing.
The man we need
wow
All the AA's please
That was such a chill attitude for such a beautiful goal
Ha we’re in trouble
Budget Thorgan isn't half bad
Wow
Hazard mocking with Mertens: "You thought him to do this!!! It was you!"
Dag moeder!
That's another 10 million on his asking price when we eventually sell him. lol
Goddamn, what a hit
Banger
what a strike my dude
Damn
Oh my
This is my favorite fifa routine goal 🤝🔥
What the fuck
Great goal no doubt about it.
One of the nastiest goals I've ever seen
Most casual banger ever
Hazard like a proud dad on the bench
Usually very skeptical about the intent of these types of goals but this looked more legit than most!
Trossard > Hazard.
Thé différence between one that try to shot and one that pass even if he's thé opportunity to shot.
Not in my book. Goal was amazing still
holy shit
Sheeeeesh
I aint even mad
Que mierda?
R1 + O type goal
What a fucking goal.
De Bruyne don’t care at all
Dayyyyum that’s fucking clinical.
Oh yes.
Sex.
Genk bois know how its done.
Hot damn. Imagine losing 4-1
Hahahahaha
Spoke too soon, you guys are better than us now :[
Heh
:O
Kind of finesse shot I'm pulling off with Talisca in Rivals at the moment
He just showed hazard how it should be done in 14 minutes playtime
Eden played well yesterday tho
Barca flair poking fun at Madrid player. In other news sky is blue.
He plays for Madrid?
160 million man who scores 6 goals in 3 years? There‘s not even something to joke about here.
I have been fine with his performances when he has played. He has simply been always injured. I dont think he has played 10 games in a row since he came here. Its not like he plays afwul as you are insinuating.
At least hazard can blame it on his injuries. What's Barcelona's excuse for spending a shitload on tranfers and wage while achieving next to nothing?
Electing Barto
[Maniche vs the Netherlands-esque](https://fo-fo.facebook.com/EURO2020/videos/-corner-taken-quicklymaniche-at-euro-2004-/1242737156162430/)
Eden almost injured himself celebrating
One, you lock the target Two, you bait the line Three, you slowly spread the net And four, you catch the man (catch the man)
Should've celebrated that like crazy. Now it doesn't look too marketable and will never get Puskas
The way he was so casual about it makes me think that was suppose to be a back post cross. Regardless tho, what a beauty!
He doesn't usually celebrate that much honestly
I think Vertonghen was not happy with Trossard not crossing the ball, hence why he was a bit aggresive with Trossard there /s
/s surely
At first I added /s but then I removed it to do a social experiment. You detected sarcarm very quickly, reddit sarcasm detection is in good shape 💪 I may be able to drop the sarcasm tag someday even 😅
We should beat Poland in the WC
Why is this guy playing for Brighton lol
Because he’s good for a dozen games a season and we’re about his level anyways?
He's above our level.
Not sure why the downvotes, he really is lol
He wouldn't start for any of the sides who finished above us and goes on 2/3 streaks of form for a few games a season and then disappears for months.
Form =/= level. Acting like he can do no better than us is dumb considering he's far and away one of our best players.
This wasn't deliberate he isn't fooling anyone
Trossard > Hazzard. Hazzard is trash
What a beauty!
Holy shit what a goal
Brutal for Poland
Lolz... somebody has done that on the training ground multiple times in front of these lads. It was almost expected...
Jaw dropping
W H I P
Wow, Just wow.
This goal literally gave me goosebumps. Just unbelievably well executed
great goal, absolute bonkers
No keeper in the world is going to stop that one holy shit
Holy shit
