goalgly

A shot that drastically changes trajectory mid-flight without physical contact, bamboozling the goalkeeper
Arthur: "I say old boy - did you happen to catch that splendid strike by Montolivo at the weekend? Quite the bend on it I must say."
Spencer: "I certainly did old chap - 'twas a fine goalgly"

Roberto Carlos' free-kick against France at Le Tournoi was the epitome of a goalgly. The swerve was sensational!

Nelinho's goalgly against Italy at the 1978 World Cup was the catalyst for Brazil's comeback in that game.
