I have to give a bit of context. Nah I wont, I want to start watching this goal over and over.

Biel Llanaes (Igualada Nº3) starts on the side. Look now. There is one player at 4 on the same side, one player in the penalty box and the fourth one at the opposite side, this last one skating backwards towards the wall. Llanes passes to Roger Bars (Igualada Nº22) to the weak side and the magic begins. 

Llanes cuts in. look at him, he fakes a block and then, he cuts in, changing speed. At the same time Marc Gonzalez (Igualada º7) skates out of 4 and stops at 3 at the weak side. Holding position there. 

Llanes gets back the ball. And stops at 3. Bars was skating towards him as well. As soon as he passes he stops and starts skating backwards towards his original position. Llanes stops at the wall. You can even see how he makes contact with the wall. Here comes the magic. Bars skated out, Marc Gonzalez was holding position at the weak side, and Joan Ruano (Igualada Nº8) in front of the keeper was skating to 7. 

The magic comes here. 3 defenders are looking at Llanes, and the fourth one is defending Ruano. Llanes starts skating toward the 9 on a curve trajectory, he is not going straight. Bars skates in like a rocket, getting his defender by surprise and getting his back. Llanes gets a pass to Bars in this tight situation. And Llanes skates out of the situation.

Guys, what a world class pass. Bars is skating towards the left hand side, and here is the second piece of magic. This pass was not enough for these guys. Ruano is skating out of 7 towards the penalty box again. Ruano skates in the box free from defender, Bars passes to Ruano, and Ruano has the time to stop the ball position de ball and execute. 

Let me finish, Ruano got the back of his defender and also the goalie, no need to mention that the timing was perfect. 

Guys I saw this goal more than 10 times saying out loud, what a goal. Every attacker executes their role in perfection. I love this guys.

Grab a stick & keep skating! Or not
