Red Alert Posted 4 February, 2010 Share Posted 4 February, 2010 I am sure it was Higuita that scored a free kick from him own half, but a quite youtube search didn't find it. :smt102 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFrost Posted 4 February, 2010 Share Posted 4 February, 2010 he inspired many of the so-called eccentric goalkeepers like Jose Luis Chilavert, Rogerio Ceni, Julian Speroni is a good example of a Higuita-inspired keeper still playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nellie Posted 4 February, 2010 Share Posted 4 February, 2010 I am sure it was Higuita that scored a free kick from him own half, but a quite youtube search didn't find it. :smt102 That's because it was Jose Luis Chilavert who scored from his own half. Higuita is a poor man's Chilavert, who often was caught by attackers whilst trying to take the ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrant Posted 5 February, 2010 Share Posted 5 February, 2010 Interesting timing of that Vickery article, considering Higuita was inducted into the Dean Windass Hall of Fame on the Football Ramble podcast this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
