How tall is your Goalkeeper?

[GeekKid]

I wish. Just turned 15 year and is a handful. I'm thankful she puts in 5 days a week for soccer. Her home time is school, Call of Duty, her friends, and her boyfriend. Not always in that order. I'll try. Maybe bribe with frozen yogurt and watching together. My wife will watch with me at least.

So is that your idea of a "date night"? Nicely done!

Goalkeepers Union Great documentary that explains the position.

It's a great documentary but things have changed since the Howard/Guzan era. In the interviews they discuss that the game is changing towards the sweeper keeper and playing moe with your feet. Also most of the interviewed started their careers late...now with the rise of European training and the MLS academy, starting at age 16 is very difficult....there's a lot to learn and to cram in just 3 short years. Somethings like the mental aspect are still spot on.

Press reports have SEC soccer champion Vanderbilt Univ. goalkeeper Sarah Fuller at 6' 2". She certainly looks taller than some of her teammates on the men's (pointy-ball) football team. No VU men's soccer team to call on when COVID impacted the football team kicking specialists so she answered her school's call to help them out. She accepted the challenge and came through when called on. Congratulations, Sarah. #playlikeagirl
