Feyenoord goalkeeper thinks outside the box to leave FC Twente incensed

The Feyenoord goalkeeper Justin Bijlow left FC Twente fuming after his quick thinking avoided a potential goal threat.
Subscribe to Guardian News on KZbin ► bit.ly/guardian...
Feyenoord were winning 1-0 when Bijlow raced out of his area to make a tackle. His pace saw him beat Twente's Virgil Misidjan to the ball at the expense of a throw, but with Bijlow stranded on the sidelines the forward sensed an opportunity for a quick goal.
Bijlow's quick thinking scuppered that idea however, as the Feyenoord keeper grabbed a stray ball and threw it onto the pitch to stop play, much to Misidjan's chagrin. The Twente winger threw the ball at the keeper in anger, and Bijlow received a yellow card for his gamesmanship.

[@andrewmay1299]

Fair play to him? Are you joking? That’s deliberate cheating and it’s absolutely pathetic. Mistiming a tackle and accidentally tripping someone up is one thing, but to deliberately cheat like that, to obviously gain a significant advantage, is terrible behaviour and I wish the referee had something at their disposal in the rules to send the player off. I would have thought denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity, but I’d need to see it from a different angle and also I don’t know exactly how the law is worded and what it covers.

[@andrewmay1299]

On second viewing, in fairness to the keeper, it’s difficult to tell which of the two balls is the one that was previously in play. If the ball the goalkeeper tackled was a separate ball to the one that the other team were about to throw into play, then the goalkeeper should not be disadvantaged in that way and should at least be allowed the time it takes for the original ball to be retrieved, to return towards their box. That is unfair to the goalkeeper this time, if they slide-tackle a ball out of play and before they’ve barely had time to return to their feet, or to the field of play, the other team are ready to throw a different ball into play. I don’t think that’s how football is supposed to work. I’m not sure that’s the purpose of having multiple footballs available, it’s meant to be a single-ball game at the end of the day.

[@rolandwoltman7835]

As someone who got more yellow cards than the entire rest of his team, *combined* I greatly approve of this keepers use of his one freebie!

[@shiftt.]

Actually, he should be given a red card. By throwing another ball, he prevented the other team from scoring a goal without a goalkeeper.

pure talent

like kids in a playground "Look teacher, he threw the ball at me first, he threw it first, look at him" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The keeper runs so far out of his way to do this it's amazing. It looks like it was his plan the whole time! 😂

Yeah he was up again before he was down!

Pitty he had a lot of injuries, because he has a lot of potential. Hopefully he can stay fit now and he can finally claim his spot in the National Team.

Fantastic tackle and really quick thinking

[@scottrc5391]

No, he should've been carded for that "tackle". Studs up, reckless tackle. I wouldn't have blamed the forward for some diving theatrics after the goalie risked breaking his ankle. And the "thinking" wasn't quick either, because he shouldn't have gotten himself that far out of position to begin with - his full back (in a more central position) would have covered and cut off the forward so what he did was completely unnecessary.

[@Jake-vh6jp]

Should have been a red card. He was so far away from goal his actions denied a clear goal scoring opportunity.

[@donkeymoo1581]

On this round of "how much cheating can a goalkeeper get away with and still only get a yellow card" Reminds me of the newcastle game last week where the keeper literally did a head first diving tackle on the player well outside the box and only got a yellow for it. It's wild that they can do anything they want

[@blackrosed8068]

Insane tackle.

[@asifosman]

What presence of mind!

[@mattparker3349]

So a normal delay of game is a yellow. Could this goal denying delay of game be considered a red?

[@JohnDoe-xv4rp]

No matter how many you tube commenters praise him for his ingenuity, It's a rat move, and it's cheating! And the fact he tried to turn it all around on the guy who threw the ball at him further cements the character of this tick worm of a man!

[@zeldzamezeeslak6082]

How is it a red move? Is getting an intentional yellow card a rat move, if you prevent a goal that way? Or how about a field player who stops a ball with his hand on the goal line to prevent a goal? Its not different from this

[@Redranger877]

One of the best keepers at the moment
