A player in FIFA 21 apparently doesn’t want to play with regular forwards and therefore resorts to the goalkeeper legend Petr Cech. And what he achieves with the keeper in terms of goals is insane.
That goalkeepers are actually there to prevent goals seems to be irrelevant to reddit user dsrii (via reddit.com). He apparently prefers to use the goalkeeper for scoring goals and impressively showcases this in a video on reddit.
What can be seen in the video? Beautifully played dream goals, scorpion kicks, volleys, skill moves, and headed goals. You can see all of this in dsrii’s goal compilation. The special thing: The scorer is every time the goalkeeper icon Petr Cech.
Here you can see how he humiliates his online opponents in Division Rivals in the 3:20 minute long video:
At the end of the video, the statistics of the Cech card are shown. And they are really impressive. In 87 games, dsrii scores 106 goals with the keeper.
That’s why the performance is so impressive: Every FIFA player has probably tried to score a goal with the keeper at least once. But it’s not really easy. Goalkeepers are controlled very clumsily, have poor dribbling, and especially low shooting stats.
This makes the displayed performance even more astonishing.
Why Petr Cech in particular? It’s not the first time that dsrii goes on a goal hunt with a goalkeeper. In FIFA 20, he posted a similar video (via reddit), this time with the goalkeeper legend Lev Yashin.
He seems to particularly like goalkeepers with headgear. Because both Cech and the Prime version of Yashin wear a helmet or hat in the game.
This is how the community reacts
What FIFA players say: On reddit (via reddit), the community celebrates the video and is excited about the skills and goals:
- “I hope you play on PS4, because I would destroy my Xbox if you outsmart me with Cech.”
- “Imagine Petr Cech… yes PETR CECH scores a goal against you and then looks into the camera like that. I would quit the game immediately.”
- “I find it very embarrassing to concede goals from keepers. But especially when it’s such unstoppable shots as in the video.”
- “That’s super funny and impressive. Why is your Cech better than my Ben Yedder?”
What about you? Do you prefer to stick with traditional forwards? Or do you also try out a goalkeeper in attack?
