Video of the Week: Rene Higuita's famous "scorpion kick"

NOTE: For those having trouble with the embedded video, go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCxe4r6SjH0 to watch the clip.

Earlier this week, Colombian goalkeeper René Higuita was honored with a Golden Foot award, given by an independent commission to players whose whole careers have been devoted to excellence and entertainment. Higuita captivated the world with a style as eccentric as it was successful, as he scored 33 goals over his career for club and country.

This video highlights possibly the most famous moment of Higuita's illustrious career, the "scorpion kick" that he executed in a friendly against England in September 1995. I could try and explain it, but just watch the video to see why the name "Higuita" was once synonymous with footballing entertainment.
