One-Legged Soccer Player Scores Incredible Goal Off Corner Kick
This is Nicolai Calabria, a senior at Concord-Carlisle Regional H.S. in Concord, Massachusetts, with one of the coolest goals you've ever going to see in a soccer match. Straight off the arching corner kick, Calabria bangs it in by pivoting off his crutches from a backward position and slamming the ball in past the goalie's far side.
Calabria is also a member of the US National Amputee Soccer Team. Here's a snippet from his team bio:
At age 13 he became the first person to ever summit 19,341 ft. Mount Kilimanjaro on crutches and in so doing raised more than $100,000 for charity. He's the subject of a short documentary film entitled Nico's Challenge, which received numerous honors including first place at the American Pavilion Film Festival in Cannes, France.
Not too shabby.
