Every week, The Guardian publishes The Knowledge, a round-up of fascinating football facts based on readers’ questions. Here are some interesting stories from the archives.
major minus
Proving that the best defence isn't always a good offence, the Brazilian club Coritiba managed to win the league in 1985 with a goal difference of -4. Thanks to the complicated league system at the time, the runners-up, Bangu, actually topped all the tables and had a GD of +32, but it was Coritiba that took it.
law and order
Naturally it would be an English team to miss the first ever penalty of the first ever penalty shootout, although it was a Scotsman (and not just any Scotsman) who did the missing. In 1970, the same year that the International Football Association Board adopted the concept, Manchester United faced Hull City in the semi-final of the long-forgotten Watney Cup. Although George Best put one past Ian McKechnie, Denis Law saw his saved. It's a pity his 1974 backheel didn't miss, either.
gloves off
Jose Mourinho recently finished his goalkeeper cameo in the Grenfell game with a gloveless penalty shootout - but it's actually a more common sight than you'd think. (The gloveless goalkeeping, not Jose Mourinho.) In - sob - the 2004 England-Portugal penalty shootout, Ricardo saved Darius Vassell's penalty without gloves. Bernard Lama, who used to play for PSG and West Ham, also sometimes played without gloves, although he's since 'smashed' his fingers 'to pieces'. And of course, whatever blokes can do, girls can do better - Kerly Theus, who plays for Aigle Brilliant, played without gloves in the 2016 championship final.
