Roberto Carlos free kick

When it comes to free kicks, Roberto Carlos was in a league of his own. 🔥 Rewind to 1997 when he stunned the world with his impossible curler against France, where he kicked the ball from a distance of 41 meters, with a speed of 136km/h and an impressive curve that went around the entire defense.

No glove lost between Friedel and Barthez

 

Brad Friedel took to Twitter on Friday to defend himself against comments made by Fabien Barthez regarding new Tottenham signing Hugo Lloris.

"He [Lloris] is faster than Friedel, he jumps higher, and he is very strong mentally," the former Manchester United man said. "What is happening now is incomprehensible, but I am not concerned. He will become the centre-piece for the club."

Exasperated by the former France shot-stopper, the American launched a counterattack on the social networking site.

"Just saw Barthez comments," Friedel wrote. "I normally don't comment on such crap, but when disrespected by someone I don't respect I must.

"Barthez was ignorant, disrespectful and out of order to mention my name."
