Sunday evening, Mexico vs. Uruguay was about to kick off. The Arizona sun was gently lowering in the sky while the Uruguay National Anthem and the Mexico National Anthem were played and everyone sang and was focused on the moment, which was a moment great games are built upon.

An Outrageous Scorpion Kick Goal

Most amazing goals consist of incredible strikes from distance or a goalie scoring off of a corner kick to save the day, but this one is quite special.

Marauding Pack Of Ballboys Attacks Defenseless Goalkeeper

*David Attenborough voice*
