Keylor Navas knocks BBC producer’s phone out of his hand from impressive distance

Who knew goalkeepers could kick the ball so accurately?!


If you plan on recording a Real Madrid training session with your phone—whether you’re five feet away or five hundred feet away—beware Keylor Navas. We know the Costa Rican goalkeeper is great at stopping shots, but good lord can he kick a ball with pinpoint (or phonepoint) accuracy.

An unsuspecting BBC World Service producer was innocently filming Real Madrid when Navas spotted him and punted a ball directly at him, knocking the phone out of his hand. Watch:

As the video says, the producer and his phone were both unharmed. It was still kind of a dick move by Navas, but, to be fair, the ball had so much distance to travel that the producer could’ve gotten out of the way of Navas’ heat-seeking missile.

Anyway, the takeaway from this incident is that Keylor Navas should be taking free kicks for Real Madrid.

DTotD: Keylor Navas obliterates Yaya Toure during friendly

With Iker Casillas out of the picture, Keylor Navas is getting his chance as Real Madrid’s No. 1 and he’s going hard to prove himself. Perhaps a little too hard.

During Real’s friendly against Man City in Australia, Navas attacked the ball, but ended up smashing into Yaya Toure instead. He then landed on top of Sergio Ramos. He seems to have taken the Miley Cyrus song “Wrecking Ball” a bit too literally.
