Harry Kane’s beautiful goal yesterday against Darmstadt from behind the center of the midfield was undoubtedly a world class goal that deserves the question: Does it top DB’s midfield goal that he famously scored from behind the right midfield in 1996? According to mathematics, Beckham’s goal is more impressive.
Match balls have significantly changed since Beckham’s era with the reduction in the amount of panels (32) in match balls like the Mitre Ultimax which is the ball Beckham struck sensationally in 96’ Vs the 6 panel balls today like the Select Derbystar bundelsiga matchball that Kane struck yesterday. 6 panel ball that Kane scored with has different aerodynamics and flight trajectory; the lesser panel balls makes it easier to strike the ball with longer hang time and with more precision.
In addition, Beckham also scored from the right side of the midfield, making the distance even further than Kane’s goal, which was from the center of the midfield, while also requiring more accuracy amidst having lesser control of the 32 panel ball.
David Beckham’s goal in 1996 was unprecedented and still amazes!
Bro said mathematically and not a single mathematical proof in sight
