And before the other keeper got a second yellow, he had come up for the corner, so at the same time that the striker on one team was trying to do the goalkeeper's job, you had the goalkeeper of the opposing team trying to do the striker's job.
Christian is too short and skinny unfortunately but he is also stupid sexy in person. It's interesting though, I want to read more on why Christian wanted to do it.. does he have a non-pro history of goalkeeping? I remember my team played a joke on me and said that I was in goal for that game... it took the whole team including my coach for me to believe them.. scariest thing ever but I would do anything for my team...also it was a great warm up for me.
Pulisic scoring the game winner and then saving a shot at the other end would have been iconic, but I’m perfectly satisfied with 2 game-breaking goals in 2 weeks.
That save highlights the mindset keepers have. You could see Giroud ducking out of the contact and shielding his face. A natural keeper goes in face first on that and smothers the ball even if the get the crap kicked out of them.
The CBS highlights were mostly just the ref handing out yellow cards through out the match without any replays to see what happened on each. Really annoying
Yep, and half the time I wouldn't even know who got the card. They didn't have the giroud save either. Didn't mention the hand ball check for pulisic's goal. Even just giroud kitting up in the keeper shirt would have been nice.
should have\* he like watched the play develop to. i could forgive himif he immediately called it dead but help like waited to make sure he was stopping a goal...
That’s so funny when it happened my first thought was maybe it’ll be Pulisic, Americans are good with their hands (half joking) but then thought nah he’s too short
Kinda think he'd have been better at it than Giroud, based mostly on his basketball skills and reflexes. But you can also see why they want someone bigger.
Milan had used all its substitutes already. They could not sub in the backup goalkeeper. One of the outfield players has to play in goal in that case.
Genoa had subs remaining, so, when their keeper was sent off they could put in their backup keeper for another player.
I HATE that this just reinforces my opinion about Pulisic.
He thinks he can do everything so he does no one thing well. He could be amazing if he focused on his job and let other people do theirs.
I HATE that this just reinforces my opinion about Pulisic
He thinks he can write whatever he wants on his shirt. He could be amazing and score even more goals vs. LLL Tri if he focused on his job and let other people do theirs..
Not sure if you watched the match but Maignan took a long time to get off the field after his red. A decision needed to be made what player was going to play GK. He got the ball rolling on that. He’s a leader on their team. Be happy
He's too busy doing other teammate's jobs that he doesn't do his own. That's always been my criticism of him and this just further reinforces that.
TRUE LEADERSHIP would have meant finding the best player to play in goal, not doing it yourself.
You can see him walk towards the bench almost immediately. I was getting hyped until I saw stupid sexy Giroud suiting up. 😂
That ending was bonkers. When is the last time both keepers got reds that late in a game?
the last 15 minutes made up for the boring first 85
And before the other keeper got a second yellow, he had come up for the corner, so at the same time that the striker on one team was trying to do the goalkeeper's job, you had the goalkeeper of the opposing team trying to do the striker's job.
i feel like its never happened
It's the 2nd time ever in Serie A or some shit Not sure about other top leagues, but I wouldn't be surprised if it has happened before.
Nah last time was the 90s I think. Inter vs Torino
Yes one of the sky Italia commentators was one of the goalies. He said, I can say it was not the first time this has happened.
Reminds me of this https://youtu.be/n04h-OXZOtY
Theres 10s of thousands of pro soccer games every year.
Yes, but we still don’t know how often both goalies get sent off so late in the game
That was my point. Thank you.
Definitely one of the craziest series of events I’ve ever seen unfold, especially considering it happened at the highest levels of the game.
Did the other team get to sub in another goalkeeper? Or did they have a field player as well?
Unfortunately they had a substitution left so the cowards brought in their back-up.
Stupid sexy Olivier!
Giroud played keeper as a youth player IIRC
Christian is too short and skinny unfortunately but he is also stupid sexy in person. It's interesting though, I want to read more on why Christian wanted to do it.. does he have a non-pro history of goalkeeping? I remember my team played a joke on me and said that I was in goal for that game... it took the whole team including my coach for me to believe them.. scariest thing ever but I would do anything for my team...also it was a great warm up for me.
Maybe he heard Mia Hamm did it and wanted his shot too
Pulisic scoring the game winner and then saving a shot at the other end would have been iconic, but I’m perfectly satisfied with 2 game-breaking goals in 2 weeks.
That last save from Giroud looked more like hammer fist ground and pound than a save. What an ending
That save highlights the mindset keepers have. You could see Giroud ducking out of the contact and shielding his face. A natural keeper goes in face first on that and smothers the ball even if the get the crap kicked out of them.
wouldn't you shield your face if you looked like Giroud?
Other players should be shielding his face for him. You don't mess up something like that.
The last 15 minutes of the match is so hype lol. Worth watching the replay starting at like 85'. The cbs highlights don't do it justice.
I’m definitely looking forward to watching the replay! The highlights sucked lol
try not to lose it when the ref doesnt play the advantage on leao downfield with no goalie in net...I'm not sure i can see that again. this ref...
what replay
Paramount + has the match replay available.

ref didnt play advantage on a 3 on 1 at half field with no goalie in net for Genoa...you really gotta watch the full thing to believe it
Lmao, forreal, could have been 2-0 honestly.
should have\* he like watched the play develop to. i could forgive himif he immediately called it dead but help like waited to make sure he was stopping a goal...
Stupid sexy Giroud
I'd to go war with Pulisic bro
Nick Rimando and Jorge Campos have entered the conversation.
That’s so funny when it happened my first thought was maybe it’ll be Pulisic, Americans are good with their hands (half joking) but then thought nah he’s too short
How short is he?
5’10 and Giroud is a legit 6’4
Kyle Walker did it for Man City and he was short
Would’ve finally been able to see what LeBron James would look like in goal

This deserves more upvotes
Pulisic has guts for sure. Glad Pioli told him no though. The potential for him to get injured is reason enough.
If that's the case, then Pulisic wanted to have his Rudy moment! I'd have been all for it.
Kinda think he'd have been better at it than Giroud, based mostly on his basketball skills and reflexes. But you can also see why they want someone bigger.
Giroud also had a nice save/challenge so can’t really complain anyway
only cause calabria the guy whose job dest was meant to take is a horrible defender made a terrible play. Giroud saved em.
Also Giroud has that big meaty French fore head
I saw big meaty French and was not expecting forehead to come after
It was originally in a call by Arlo White, and referenced by everyone ever since.
Giroud has played the position before
Interesting, when?
Pretty sure when he was a youth.
Also his brother is a pro GK so I'd imagine he's messed around there
My glorious king would be better than prime Buffon
Check to see if Pulisic played cornerback before :)
Always let the American play GK. We know how to use our hands.
Apologies for the ignorance…but why was Giroud in goal at all? Didn’t they have a backup?
No subs left in stoppage time
Milan had used all its substitutes already. They could not sub in the backup goalkeeper. One of the outfield players has to play in goal in that case. Genoa had subs remaining, so, when their keeper was sent off they could put in their backup keeper for another player.
They’d used up all their subs.
Assault
Americans are good at using their hands 😤
pulisic didn't play as gk
Lol
I HATE that this just reinforces my opinion about Pulisic. He thinks he can do everything so he does no one thing well. He could be amazing if he focused on his job and let other people do theirs.
weird comment
Gives off the same vibes as people who complain that the amount isn't enough when someone donates to charity.
YOU DIDNT GIVE ME A FULL SCOOP OF MEAT

Did he do his job when he scored the winner?
Can you score the winner when you're playing Keeper?
Actually yes you can. https://youtu.be/ts88Pb0mZ3o?si=d8M87MNH-bBw5ntN
I was expecting that to be the Alisson goal. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFXkwCtEzDQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFXkwCtEzDQ) :Þ
Yes
He scored the gamewinner and you're complaining about him doing other teammates jobs?
Take a break my boy you’re making weird comments rn. You don’t know these guys personally
Dude wtf haha
Lol
