Real Madrid players developed an incredible technique for taking free kicks, resulting in a shot that surpassed the speed of sound and light, shattering the net and momentarily dazzling Atletico players.
While it would be amazing for players to develop such a technique, it’s important to clarify that surpassing the speed of sound or light with a free kick isn’t possible within the realms of physics. The speed of sound is approximately 343 meters per second, while the speed of light is an astronomical 299,792,458 meters per second.
In football, the fastest recorded shot comes nowhere near these figures, with some of the most powerful strikes recorded around 130-150 km/h (36-42 m/s). The idea of a free kick breaking the net and dazzling opponents sounds like the stuff of science fiction or an exciting video game! Nonetheless, Real Madrid players are known for their incredible technique and skill, but achieving such feats would defy the laws of nature.
