It is so surprising that more teams don't use the tactic much more than what they do. Throughout football history, it has been shown to be very successful time & time again. Who can forget the long throw from Andy Legg in the Anglo Italian Cup final in 1995 that led to Tony Agana getting the first goal for Notts.

November 2, 2024Nov 2 #4 It’s a really impressive throw and I don't want to be a killjoy, but I'm going to be... Is it just me seeing a foul on the keeper? The striker throws his hand into the keeper’s head? That’s a foul. There's another angle that's missing that shows it more clearly and it's missing from that clip, I guess they are trying to not spoil the feel-good moment everyone wants. Huddersfield still should’ve been able to come back from it though, they only needed one goal and if you can’t score one against a team two divisions lower than you I guess you don’t really deserve to go through.
November 2, 2024Nov 2 #5 A the end of the day the goal was given. I think whether it was given or not doesn't detract from the chaos that a long throw like that can do to defences. Most defences just don't know how to deal with it because the trajectory of the ball from a throw in is different to a normal cross by kicking the ball.
