Pretty little goal. The commenter says, "Brilliant, Sturridge, at knocking the ball over goalkeepers when they come out." True dat. This ability might be my favorite thing about Messi, too.

I wonder if this skill is in fact part of Messi's apparent magic: goalkeepers can't come out to meet him so they don't--which gives him two pieces of side netting to shoot at.
