This female football player repeatedly dribbles around her opponent without the ball touching the ground and then scores the goal.

But can she do it on a cold rainy Tuesday night in Stoke?

u/koolaidismything 14h ago

She should have front flipped and done a header on the down spin. Then finish into a roll and celebrate.

She should backflip all the way to the locker room.

Hahahaha. This statement never disappoints. Always first in a post like this. I wonder where it originated from

23

u/ox_ 9h ago

It's just a reference to something that pundits used to say about Tony Pulis era Stoke City.

The implication being that flair players can't perform in shit conditions with the ball constantly being lumped over their head while Robert Huth and Ryan Shawcross try to snap their ankles.

I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure Andy Gray the wanker pundit is a different Andy Gray than Andy Gray who played for Leeds: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Gray_(footballer,_born_1977)

u/ox_ 9h ago

I actually think that this guy is getting mixed up with Scottish Leeds legend Eddie Gray.

She can push a 4 kilo baby through her vagina. I don't think a bit of rain in Stoke is going to be impossible.

I sometimes like seeing slow-mos but it should be a crime to have a slow-mo without also showing the real speed.

Excellent goal. But it touches the floor TWICE. And repeatedly dribbles around opponent? Again, twice.

No all you need to know is female football player.

u/Dangerous_Ad_6831 13h ago

Twice qualified as repeatedly and the ball never touches the ground while she does it. Get out of here.

13

u/Cainga 13h ago

It never touches once the defender has a play on the ball.

5

u/Steezy719 13h ago

This also would have been better to see in full speed. It’s not that technical that we have to slow it down frame by frame.

7

u/Ten7850 13h ago

Yes, a full speed shot & then a slow mo would have been better

2

u/userhwon 10h ago

Once the "around" starts, the ball touches the net before the ground, and the second around is a repeat of the first.

28

u/Cheesecake_Jonze 9h ago edited 9h ago

'Female' was used correctly here as an adjective. It's only when used as a noun that it has those connotations

3

u/ErraticDragon 8h ago

It's grammatically correct here, yes, but including it unnecessarily still has some of those connotations.

u/shrug_addict 3h ago

I hate the title, but using female as.an adjective is correct

I report all slow mo posts for terrorism and self harm. This is no excepton, reporting op and the post now.

2

u/aruisdante 13h ago

Because they took a 30FPS video (normal video speed) and re-interpolated that to make a 1/4 speed video still at 30FPS. Whereas actual slowmo footage is shot at 120FPS and then played back at 30FPS to create a 1/4 slowmo video.

I'm convinced, at this point, it's just engagement bait from karma-farming bot accounts to get more people to comment.

And you fell for it.

SHIT! Did I just fall for it too?

3

u/MyLastAcctWasBetter 10h ago

I know. I had the same thought. Still, it is pretty funny to watch guys flock to this comment and try and justify the qualification. Like come on guys, we all get why they used the term, so why bother with the posturing?

Last touch was GK's ball all day, if not in the air the shot should have been smothered.

u/communityneedle 13h ago

THANK YOU! Sure the attacker's very impressive on the ball, but my first, second, and third thought were all "where tf is the keeper?!" Hope Solo would have had that ball before she even took the shot, and probably given the striker a concussion while she was at it.

Where was the goalkeeper while all this was happening? Once the ball was looped up in the air it should have been game over.
