Very often, when we hear in radio commentary about a fantastic shot, or a screamer, or a rasper, we wait breathlessly to see what turns out to be a half-hit thump that somehow misses everyone in the way and that the keeper should've stopped. Murphy's shot, though..... wow. Just wow. Two keepers wouldn't have been enough.
People who've seen more of the Yoof than I have: do the twins play off different feet, or is Jake played on the right because Josh is (even) better on the left? I watched the four semi and final games but even at the end i was struggling to remember which was which: it's not only their appearances that are identical, their play is, too. In the end I worked out that if they're running at you, they're alphabetical from the left.
With Pilks, I eventually worked out that he's right footed by seeing which foot he took a pass with when he took one while standing still, but in 4 games I couldn't work out which Murphy was playing on his wrong side (assuming twins have the same good side). YCNHTMPCWBF. It makes them twice as hard to close down. IMTTAHTCD.
I'm really excited. Get the fug in.
