Photoshop of Horrors

(Or, as Van Halen once put it, "You might as well jump.")

So, first there was The Goal.

Then there was the Photo of The Goal.

Then there was a lot of fun with the Photo of The Goal. (Click on it to see it bigger.)

And related topics...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And finally there was the Song of The Goal, and the Video of the Song of The Goal (featuring the Photo of The Goal)...

 

We think the words are something like...

They jump to the sky, they jump to the sky
They jump to the sky, Rakitic and Negredo, they jump to the sky, Rakitic and Negredo,
They jump to the sky 

They jump to the sky and he puts it against the post,
It rolls along the ground, he puts it against the post, it rolls along the ground 

What cheekiness, the free-kick of Beñat, what cheekiness, the free-kick of Beñat Extebarria
Viva el Betis! 

UPDATE: I had the final line explained to me by some Spanish friends. It says "Que chuleria" which is quite hard to translate, but I think has the sense of being amazing and a bit cocky, so I went with "cheeky", but feel free to disagree.

This all comes from a thread on the Betisweb forum entitled "Analysis of the photo of Beñat's goal."

Ha Ha !! This is just hilarious !! Adam thanks for your coverage of the derby, it just gets better and better. I saw the game over the internet, thousands of miles away here in the North East of England, and felt very proud to be a Betis fan. When Beñat scored in the last minute...Wow, just great, just great...Greetings from everyone in the Blyth Spartans-Real Betis peña betica !
