Kyoto goalkeeper’s long throw helps create chance in 1-0 win
Kyoto Sanga beat Ratchaburi FC 1-0 in the AFC Champions League Elite’s second round on Tuesday.
In the seventh minute, Kyoto goalkeeper Gu caught a shot and quickly threw the ball far upfield.
His long throw reached Marco Túlio near the opposing penalty area, after it sailed over a Ratchaburi defender.
Túlio was stopped by another defender and did not get a shot away.
The move showed how a goalkeeper’s throw can start an attack, a less common approach than launching the ball with a kick.
Goalkeepers increasingly help create attacks with long kicks, but long throws that reach the other end are still unusual.
The account gives no further match schedule or next step for either team.
