You know a free kick routine is clever when it catches out the cameraman.

France U20 star Romain Habran caught everyone out when some sharp-mindedness enabled him to call for the ball from a free kick and wallop it goalwards. Not one defender reacted in time to close him down and the goalkeeper wasn't placed well enough to get anywhere near it but perhaps the most impressive element of the strike was the fact that the cameraman had cut away to a replay, so confident was he of having time on his side. The broadcast quickly cut back to real time only to see the ball sail into the net with nobody knowing how the hell it happened. https://youtu.be/9PGu8Ld3dtg H/t to 101GreatGoals
