A 45-Year-Old Goalkeeper Smokes at Halftime Before Making a Spectacular Save
At 45, Florent goalkeeper-smokes-cigarette-at-half-time/” title=”Coupe de France: Gallia Lucciana Goalkeeper Smokes Cigarette at Half-Time”>Menozzi is not your average goalkeeper. One of the eldest active players in the national championships, Menozzi, who defends the nets for a Corsican club, is known for his theatrical flair both on and off the field.
During a recent Cup match against Lucian Gaul, Menozzi took his showmanship to a new level.
It was halftime, and while his teammates huddled in the locker room strategizing, Menozzi found his own form of relaxation. He took a leisurely stroll outside and, in full view of surprised onlookers, lit a cigarette.
It wasn’t exactly the kind of pre-second-half routine expected from a professional athlete. But Menozzi knew what he was doing.
The relaxed veteran emerged for the second half ready for action. Minutes later, Lucian Gaul’s Souleymane Diarra launched a powerful shot aimed directly at the top corner.
To the astonishment of spectators, Menozzi executed a gravity-defying save, tipping the ball over the crossbar and preserving the lead.
Menozzi’s unconventional halftime ritual had no negative consequences. On the contrary, it seemed to enhance his focus. The outrageous action painted a clear picture of his personality: a confident player who operates according to his own rules both on and off the field.
