VIDEO: Amazing Blindfold Penalty

Absolutely blinding

VIDEO: Amazing Blindfold Penalty
16 September 2012

Every week, the terraces of the world's football clubs ring out with exasperated shouts of supporters screaming "I could have scored that with my eyes closed".

But even the most optimistic fan wouldn't expect to stick away a penalty quite as well as this when blindfolded.

Little known Finnish striker Pekka Sihvola was training with his team MYPA on Saturday when this wonder strike was captured on film.

Sihvola has scored 12 goals in the Finnish Premier League this season - maybe when this video goes viral he might get a move to a bigger club or, at the very least, selection for the next Finnish Paralympic Blind Football team.
