Luiz Adriano: Unsportsmanlike Goal for Shakhtar in Champions League [Video]

All, Soccer, Video Ty Duffy November 20th. 2012, 4:26pm

Here is an interesting goal from today’s Champions League match between Shakhtar and Nordsjælland. Shakhtar kicked the ball back after a play stoppage due to injury. Their Brazilian striker Luiz Adriano jumped on it, ran around the Danish club’s goalkeeper and scored. A complete miscommunication…or the ultimate dick move?

I have no idea what was going on there. Is this an unwritten rule of soccer type thing?

Danish TV reports that Shakhtar’s manager told his players to let Nordsjælland to score their second goal, making it 2-2 at halftime. Now 4-2 Shakhtar.

Nordsjælland had a guy go down, they blew play dead. Gentlemanly rules state that Shakthar give it back because Nordsjælland had it when the guy went down, that’s what the player is doing with the drop kick, just kicking it back to the goalie. It’s a live ball but it’s the biggest unwritten rule of the game.
The ref was 100% right to let the goal stand though.

Now Adriano has a hat-trick (including the “dirty” goal), and it is 5-2.

The usual, ridiculous soccer dive resulting in that is pretty awesome karma.

United loss is meaningless as they’re already through as winners, but man Chelsea, woof. If Shakhtar and Juve draw Chelsea are out regardless of what they do against Nordsajaelland. One of the most expensive teams ever assembled, whomp whomp.

I’d like a video update with the goal that was purposefully allowed.

Their back line looks lost without “The Racist.”

Keep on flopping. You shouldn’t get the ball back flopping like an asshole off the ball. That said, that was rather a dick move.

Yeah they could have definitely been more creative in allowing a goal to go in. Maybe have a defender scissor kick it into his goal or something.

Has there ever been a discussion on reviewing flops? While the li’l bitches are rolling around with their hands holding their face, a booth guy has plenty of time to rule that he get the fuck off the field and sit out for 5.

The soccer governing bodies are hell bent against any kind of in game review, just now getting goalline technology and even that is still facing a lot of argument. Standard argument of slowing down the game and taking out the human element.
After the fact bans for diving are allowed, although very rare.

Thanks for the rundown. Instant review, mid-histrionics, would be awesome.

Actually, it would be great if, while dude is rolling around, the booth reviews it and notifies the field it’s bogus by blowing a huge ship’s horn. This would alert Sally that she can quit rolling around and can now meekly walk off the field for a penalty.

If it’s questionable that the ball crossed the goal line it should be reviewable. That’s it, though.

Shaktar didn’t let them score in return… this goal tied it up at 1-1, then the Danish team took a 2-1 lead on a great shot 4 minutes later (soon to be surrendered).
Would a little bit of explanation/research have been that difficult, Duffo?

Soccer has enough rules that keep you from scoring goals. Unwritten ones are entirely unnecessary and should be wilfully ignored.
