Slovenia 1 - 2 Gylfi

[murichej]

WOW @ 1st goal

I'm Slovenian and I'm happy for what happened tonight. Slovenian team was disaster and it was really nice to watch how Gylfi dominated the match.

COME ON YOU SPURS

 

[chinaman]

Repeat the feat against Swansea please.

That freekick was incredible

 

[Gbspurs]

That freekick was incredible

About to say the same. The dip was of immense dimensions. Do you think he has been training with Bale?

 

[Blackcanary]

Holy shit at the dip on the free kick. That was mind-boggling.

 

[Ian Kane]

Gylfi has grown in the last month or so and it's nice to see Even with that peach he's not going to get near free kicks any time soon is he.

 

[Spurrific]

Against Handanovic as well.

 

[murichej]

Handanovic is very average at the moment

 

[Spurrific]

Handanovic is very average at the moment

Haven't seen much of him of late, admittedly, but have always rated him highly as a 'keeper.

 

[murichej]

sure he is but this season in Inter he conceded lots of goals becouse of poor defence and his confidence isn't highest at the moment.

well.. I think there is no keeper on this planet that could save that free kick. gread job by Sig!

 

[WiganSpur]

That freekick, tikaboo Gylfi

 

[Blackcanary]

Against Handanovic as well.

It still doesn't make up for the emotional and mental torture of last week though!

 

[EJWTartanSpur]

This will be great for his confidence.

Sig is easily the better and more consistent free taker, over Bale, its a shame he can't get more us

 

[JohanTheYid]

Iceland = 1 man team

 

[3Dnata]

He's been threatening to deliver for us for a while so I hope this gives him confidence.

Great goal, but sadly i cant see him taking a freekick for us anytime soon...well not with Bale on the park.

 

[balalasaurus]

Good to see Gylfi on the scoresheet. Defoe scored too. Hopefully the boys come back with a bit more belief in themselves now. COYS

That dip was anti-physics.

 

[EJWTartanSpur]

You can see that that dip has existed throughout his recent career at Hoffenheimm and Swansea. He utilizes it differently as well, as his upward trajectory is much higher/steeper and the ball dips and finds a top corner. Bale hits his flatter and harder, and the dip is equally vicious, but his shots end up in bottom corners etc as opposed to top. You can see the same dip with Sig's corners and set piece delivery, when his corners are on they look like a complete nightmare to deal with. His Swansea and Hoff comps have got loads of examples. One of the most vicious dippers was a free kick for Swansea that looked like it was going well over until it crashed into the bar at the last moment possible.

 

[ClintEastwould]

He's got that Tom Cleverley style of curling the ball. Excessive curl and the follow through leg brought up to waist height
