Ragnar Sigurdsson Knows No Range

By: chris | April 12th, 2009

Shame on you if you’re not up on your Allsvenskan. The Swedish league kicked off last weekend and in just its second week, they’ve already got what will likely be the goal of the season.

As if being thumped 4-0 by halftime wasn’t enough, Djurgardens were simply waiting for the final whistle to end their misery in the 84th minute when Ragnar Sigurdsson, a 22yo Icelandic defender primed to be a star in one of Europe’s big leagues before long, gave IFK Goteborg a 5th from inside his own half. I’m sure rubbing actual salt in a wound would’ve been more pleasurable for Durgardens’ keeper.

  If we’re talking about great goals, I’d like to offer this one from the Mexican league:

  I believe that the goal Grafite scored against Bayern Munich is still in the lead for goal of the year…

  With that being said, this was a great goal…there is no excuse for the goalkeeper to be that out of position…

  What you said is true Mike but that shot had pace and perfect precision. It wasn’t just a lob, it was basically hit with emphasis into the goal.

  What does Grafite’s goal have to do with the Allsvenskan?
