The record for the longest distance goal in football is currently held by Tom King. He scored from a distance of 96.01 meters while playing for Newport County. This goal was done in 2021. Now this record can be broken. Officials from Chile’s football league will investigate the actual length of the pitch and try to get it officially recognized as the longest goal in the world.
How was the goal scored from 101 metres?
Colo-Colo’s team was attacking Cabresal. The ball was near Kebresal’s goal post and most players from both teams were also in Kebresal’s half. The goalkeeper of the Colo-Colo team was also out of his box. Rickena had seen this. In such a situation, as soon as the ball came to him, he shot with full force. However, the ball still did not cross the opposition goalkeeper and there was little chance of a goal, but the Kolo-Kolo goalkeeper misjudged the bounce of the ball. For this reason, the ball bounced a little ahead of him and went over his head towards the goal post. The goalkeeper of Colo-Colo tried to stop the ball on the run, but he was unsuccessful and Requena found the goal.
