Bicycle Kick In Japan Forces Every xG Model Into Existential Crisis
Thirty-year-old Brazilian forward Everaldo — a career journeyman who spent two underwhelming years in Mexico with Querétaro — has scored one of the greatest late equalizers in the game's history.
Everaldo is now on the books with Kashima Antlers in Japan, and his side welcomed Cerezo Osaka to town on Wednesday night in J1 League action. The visitors went ahead 3-2 thanks to a goal from Brazilian winger Jean Patric, but that set the stage for his compatriot's incredible equalizer in the 89th minute.
