Wow...that just happened?
Sorry if this post is too 'Twittery' and or new Facebook status-updatey.
My jaw dropped when Federico Macheda scored the 3-2 winner for Manchester United in injury time seconds ago at Old Trafford.
The dude doesn't even have a Wikipedia page.
What were the odds of that on the touts' cards? 10,000-to-1?
It's not just that the guy was a complete unknown, the way he finished was a goal of the year candidate. Flipping it back to yourself, and curling in into the far post?
This was a like a rookie, September call-up hitting a pinch-hit walk-off home run in a pennant chase in Major League Baseball. He even had the high number (41) covered.
Yossi...you just got moved to the back burner, sorry.
Apologies again if this is incoherent, or at least more so than usual, but I'm simply floored. I haven't been this stunned by a sporting event since the Cardiac Turks at last year's Euro.
Bottom line if you had an ex-Lazio youth player deciding the 2008-09 Premier League, well, I want a ride in your Delorean. I'll bring my own plutonium.
Full Monday post, tomorrow.
