[QUOTE="dasNdanger, post: 612753, member: 61962"] I was doing a bit of research on this (not sure about Steyn, was looking for the longest kick) and was stunned to learn that the longest authenticated penalty kick was made by Bridlington School's Ernie Cooper back in 1944 - 81 yards/[COLOR=#333333][FONT=verdana]74.06m! Blew me away to think someone could accurately kick a ball that far. I wonder if we'll ever see that in the modern, professional game. das [/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
