Stoke City goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has earned a place in the Guinness World Records book for the longest goal scored in football. The 27-year-old scored from a long kick forward in his side's 1-1 draw with Southampton
last November. His kick, after 13 seconds, caught the wind and bounced over opposite number Artur Boruc into the Saints' net. It has now been measured at 91.9m (301ft 6in), earning it the accolade in the record book's latest edition. "I feel amazing to be honoured in this way and as a
goalkeeper I didn't expect this to happen, not for this type of record
anyway."
