VIDEO: Blindfolded French footballer scores incredible solo goal

What a finish

Kevin McGillicuddy

We have two almost perfectly working eyes and we can’t even do this.

We’ve seen plenty of brilliant strikes from the weekend’s action on the football field, but we doubt Ronaldo,Raheem Sterling or anyone else could have scored a goal like this.

Last Friday there was a game organised between Germany and France by the Ligue d’Alsace de Football Association.

Fairly standard yo’d think. The only thing is all those playing wore blindfolds.

If we were playing we would have probably hoofed the ball out of the makeshift pitch or injured ourselves or our team-mates. A normal night at 5-a-side then.

So how anyone scored a goal,and an incredible goalzo at that, is beyond us.

Yvan Wouandji is the hero that did just that as the 21-year-old took on the entire German side and hammered home a wonderful strike worthy of winning any game.
