Peter Schmeichel (Goalkeeper) scores overhead kick in last minute.

With a rare defeat looming for the 1997 Manchester United team, Peter Schmeichel came sprinting up the field for a last minute corner. Having scored against Rotor Volgograd he once again came into the box in the hope of rescuing the FA Cup 4th round replay. With the ball coming towards him and facing the other way from the goal he improvised, hitting a sweet overhead kick into the bottom corner...only to be (rightly) called offside. Unfortunately for him what would have been one of the greatest goals by a keeper.

Disgrace. Linesman needs to learn the rules of the game. Offside rule doesnt apply to a goalkeeper :)

It does. The keeper is the same as all other players on the pitch. The difference is that is he designated to hold the ball in his teams penalty area.

[Charlie Coles]

Shame he was offside. What a goal... Especially by a GK... Even if he is the greatest ever!
