Handball player falls over like he passed out to score ludicrous disallowed goal
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Federico Pizarro of Argentina is a pragmatist. Who cares if something isn’t really in the spirit of the sport — provided you can get away with it. During a handball match against Denmark he almost did.
Pizarro lined up for a shot and was faced with a wall. In this situation you need to find an angle, any way through. His technique was to fall over, almost as if he fell asleep mid-match, and he found the perfect gap as the Denmark defenders failed to adapt.
It wasn’t a goal because Pizarro’s foot was on the line, but it should have been for style alone.
