@lukegerr: This shot was moving so fast the player it hit needed medical attention. Valverde was genuinely worried — and once you see the numbers, you’ll understand why... Valverde’s fastest recorded shot is 90.1mph — 12th fastest of all-time. The problem is these numbers only measure the goals — and based on Yann Bisseck’s reaction I think this was actually a lot faster. So let’s do the math. Our clip is 30fps and the ball takes 13 frames to go from Valverde’s foot to Bisseck’s head. We know Bisseck’s height is 1.96 meters, and we can actually use the lines on the pitch to solve the rest. Using a simple ratio, I found the horizontal distance, and finally — the hypotenuse, which is the actual path of the ball. 21.15m in .43 seconds. Meaning Valverde’s shot was traveling at 175km/h when it hit Bisseck’s head. That is 108.7mph, unofficially the 7th fastest recorded shot speed in football history. #valverde #football #Soccer #championsleague #realmadrid
