Video: Slovenian team fire footballs from canons on goal for goalkeeping practise

If ever a team deserved the nickname ‘the firing squad’ it’s these lads. Bloody hell.

Goalkeepers are often slightly more bonkers than normal football players but the goalkeepers from Slovenian fourth division side SD Gorišnica are obviously a bit barmier than the rest if this is the type of thing they get up to on a regular basis. We genuinely doubt that this is common practise and imagine it was just a once-off, but can you imagine putting your body behind even one of these shots? Brings a whole new meaning to the term ‘Cannonball’ alright. Yikes. Video via YouTube/Marko Lapornik Hat-tip: @sloveniafooty via 101 Great Goals
