Argentina is quite lucky to be in 4th in CONMEBOL's World Cup Qualifying, judging by the number of times this ball bounced around the box. Receiving his 10th cap less than a month before his 36th birthday, Martin Palermo scored a 94th minute winner to vault Argentina into an automatic qualifying place. To keep that spot, they will have to avoid defeat on Wednesday in a do-or-die match against 5th place Uruguay.
The goal, by the way, was immediately upstaged by coach Diego Maradona's absurd sliding celebration, also shown here.

Apply for the AARP? I'd like to see you score a goal in a pick-up game, let alone an international competition, youngster. You will be old one day, which means it's all downhill for you now, anyways...
ReplyDeleteEasy there, merely a tongue-in-cheek comment on how in footballing terms, he's a mighty old guy. No need to get righteous.
