                Back in the 1890's, Wee Willie Keeler of the Baltimore Orioles summed it up best...
                Hit 'em where they aint
                ..

                This could be applied to the Perfect Penalty Kick...put the ball where it wont get blocked and where it will count, IN THE NET!

                    A keeper can't afford to wait. He has to move even before the ball is kicked.

                      Shouldn't there be an equals sign in there to make this formula useful for something? What does it supposedly add up to?

                      Wait a minute, this is soccer. I'm an American. Why am I asking?

                        Yep, one of the most limited players we've had at Liverpool over the last 20 years or so was a slow thug who played a left back called Julian Dicks. But he was was a cracking penalty taker because he just used leather the ball as hard as he could into the top left or right of the net.

                            Is this article meant to be funny?

                                Oh, and this article is funny to that same group of people that find professional soccer interesting. Perhaps there is a correlation?
