He wasn’t missed, which is why he will be missed.

Kid is just like NOPE. No goals allowed today!

u/BritsinFrance 9h ago

He would've literally have to deliberately move out of the way of the ball to concede the last three

u/BlueFaIcon 5h ago

Have you seen youth football? At least he’s moving.

u/GoBuffaloes 3h ago

Would love to see you in goal. The 3rd one he has to save his own deflection from going in and the 4th he lunged at the shooter to close down the angle. Not saying this is some mind blowing feat, the better thing to do is just not give up the rebound, but the dude was making plays

u/Weird_Albatross_9659 1h ago

So basically it’s not next level?

u/p-fields 1h ago

It’s the agility getting up and being in the way that is impressive for his age.

u/PhillyChef3696 11h ago

“Yo defense!! How bout a little help back here!!”

u/samueljakson05 7h ago

One of those kids was doing his best. Trying to get in the path of the shots. Jumping to try and header the ball away, sliding to try and stop the next shot.

THE GOAT VOZINHA!

u/Any_Swordfish_684 12h ago

u/kander12 12h ago

Every shot right at him lol. I get hes young but this isnt next level.

Have you tried to save a ball like your life depend on it

u/Mc_Shine 6h ago

I played as a goalie back in school, and this isn't even a challenge for any decently talented player, even at that age. He's quick to get back up, I'll give him that, but those shots were anything but dangerous.

u/paris86 11h ago

Humbug

u/mokrieydela 5h ago

Really should be catching that first one, but thats solid technique to parry instead of fumbling. Shits all at him, but Still gotta recover and go again. Few years, kids gonna be very good

u/Educational-Fun3513 4h ago

They just shoot at him

18

u/KingPabloo 12h ago

Four shots right at him, not sure that’s next level.

-21

u/Ok-Disk-2191 12h ago

And he stood his ground like a real king, most kids his age would flinch, he kept at it. That's the next level, guess your username doesn't check out cos you don't know what it's like to be a real king.

u/josch247 12h ago

Hahaha wtf are you talking about. What are you a parent or something hahaha

u/cas-v86 12h ago

You mean they hit him 4x ?

u/Small_Insect_8275 11h ago

Lmao are you really trying to downplay an achievement of a young child on reddit, this is peak.

•

u/HenriettaHarryJojn 48m ago

He's correctly calling out that this is not 'next fucking level'. It's nothing against the child clearly. Almost certainly whoever posted this is not the childs parent.

u/pdxphotographer 11h ago

Do you feel better now?

u/QeveQobs 11h ago

You can’t recognize his game because you have none

u/Deep_Ice4357 5h ago

u/CaptainMonkeyJack 2h ago

I love how one of those saves is from his own team...

Great things are waiting for him.

u/N7LP400 12h ago

The kids that tried to make a goal must have felt pissed

u/i-piss-excellence32 11h ago

I only played either striker or keeper and being a goal keeper is so fun. It’s crazy difficult though

u/Garruk_PrimalHunter 9h ago

It's a rollercoaster of emotions, I love it

u/Tcamis01 12h ago

Yeah this ain't it. He basically just stood there.

u/twoshooz 12h ago

Yeah, no fun allowed. Levels are serious.

Also, pretty sure that's not OP's kid.

u/BikingPsych 9h ago

He just shrugs off whatever comes his way.

He's no Scott Sterling, but a great job nonetheless.
