i f***ing love that statue. whether it's supposed to be a rocket shot on goal or a defensive clearance, either way the ball is going back towards his own net with topspin.

yes! i've just clicked what it is. it's that little gold-painted plastic thing which sat atop every cheap marble football trophy you ever won as a kid. it needs painting gold and 'alesund all-comers 5-a-side champions 1996' adding on a small brass plaque at the base.
