Anyone's Goalkeeper scored?

[DaneKhoo]

Was playing against Getafe away from home when this happen...

The assistant referee raised his flag...
Kepa was offside
A freekick was awarded to Barcelona
The freekick was taken by Valdes
VALDES SCORED IN BIZARRE FASHION!!
His first ever goal for Barcelona

That is way beyong the halfway line. Probably the best freekick ever scored!

3 Threads from the Challenges forum, where by people tried to get the GK to score via Pens and FK's, and occasionally coming up for corners.

I never got around to doing '09 records (Mainly because the thread wasn't all too active.

[charlo116]

i have never had one of my goalies score and i had never even seen it happen until fm 2010. I lost a game 1-0 with the only goal coming from the other teams goalie.

[slipknot67]

My regen keeper Vilhena took a free kick in our own half from an offside from the opposition and it sailed right over the opposing keeper into the net.

[outtasync]

I just had Oscar Ustari score for me yesterday. Took a long free kick from near our own penalty box, the ball bounced over a melee scramble, over Iker Casillas and into the goal.

[Deaksydeak]

in my 1st or 2nd game in charge of atalanta my GK (think it was coppola) popped up and scored an equaliser in the dying seconds.....crazy

[Johnnyhugs]

Yes, from a goal kick. It bounced in front of opponent's goalie and went it i lol'd.

[Hershie]

Only once I can remember. Was messing around with farrows to overload/exploit the ME in FM07 and I ended up with Boca 1 - 17 Arsenal, with Lehmann scoring from open play.

[gunner86]

On 09 it happened a couple of times. Yet to see it on this one though.

[duckers4]

Buffon scored for me once when i was managing Italy. He came up for a corner in the last few minutes and scored with a header.

[Shaun of Leeds]

Well i dont know about goalies scoring but Buffon out of all people in a recent game was coming out of his goal for a corner only for it to go horribly wrong, my right back ran to the half way line before smashing in a beauty, tut tut, buffon out of all people.

One can only imagine the mornings newspapers.

[duckers4]

i was drawing a game i needed to win so set the tactics to overload and he managed to score so i was happy.

Rob Green scored from a free-kick for me inside his own half. I dont know what type of free-kick mine was but as a referee I can tell you your goal should have been disallowed! Offsde free-kicks are indirect.

Something for SI to look at, perhaps.

Perhaps this is a minor bug?

[roykela]

My goalkeeper scored from a free-kick inside our own half as well. Can't remember what the free-kick was for.

Ball went over the oppositions goalkeeper and bounced in

[stevedaytona]

I had Diego Penny convert a penalty when I was managing Burnley but I suspect you are looking for a goal in normal play

[PremierManager2010]

Joe Hart takes my penalites if that counts.

[Matt ex SEGA]

Joe Hart takes my penalites if that counts.

That's a LOL.

[shezza88]

My goalkeeper took a free kick well inside my own half.. He hit it, my striker and one of their defenders jumped for it, one of them hit it, their goalkeeper
comes rushing out, not sure if it hit him, but anyway, it goes in and my goalkeeper celebrates?

EDIT: found it again, just went straight in from a free kick well inside my half. (Y)

[ACJMY2K]

My keeper scored from a goal kick...........

[BaritoneStu]

Mine just scored from 70 yards too... Doesn't quite seem right does it?

[Freindly lemon]

A lot of people have but so far I have not .

[Ellis_D]

I was playing FM08 with my cousin, me as Chelsea, him as Man Utd.

Anyway, one year when he got to the Champions League Final, he was losing in extra time. He chucked his goalkeeper (Iker Casillas) up for a corner about two minutes to go. I swear down I just said to him 'You may aswell try it, but I have tried loads of times and never had it happen on any FM game'.

A second later? Casillas heads home! He then goes on to not only save three penalties in the shootout but also get the winner from the spot! Quite amazing stuff. I don't think I would have believed him had I not seen it all unfold with my own eyes.

[Magnakai Haaskivi]

I didn't realize the restart from an offside call was a direct kick; I always thought that was indirect?

[RandomManager]

Paddy Gamble for York City scored for me. I don't know how he just kicked it and what do you know.

[SCIAG]

Perhaps this is a minor bug?

It's a pretty major bug, I don't think SI have even implemented indirect free kicks. Impeding also results in a direct free kick.

I nearly fainted when I first saw an indirect free kick in FM2010 - at last!!
