We all know how good Thierry Henry has been over his career, scoring a freight load of goals for AS Monaco, Arsenal and most recently Barcelona. He'll surely going down as one of the greatest strikers the world has ever known. Thing is, even at his advanced soccer age of 35, he still is a dominate player. I won't deny he's lost a step and tearing up the MLS isn't in the stratosphere of tearing up the German Bundesliga let alone the Premiership, but he has once again proved to be a on-the-field leader since the day he arrived in New York.
Now onto two days ago when Henry dropped in one of the most jaw-droppingly perfect corner kicks you'll ever see. Now we see guys score goals off corner kicks every once and a while, but rarely when they do it on purpose. If you watch closely, Henry certainly was looking back post with the purpose of scoring, not assisting. There is no one even close to back post and he didn't even flinch when it went in. There was no "Oh my God" celebration, no surprise on his face. Just a nice friendly jaunt, a pointing finger toward the fans and a pointing finger right back at himself.
Enjoy.
