THE GOALKEEPEREddie Gustafsson is the man between the sticks at Red Bull Salzburg, and he fancies his chances when faced with a spot-kick. “Usually, I just feel that I have the upper hand,” says the 32-year-old, who was born in the United States but went on to earn eight caps for Sweden. “I have to feel like this, because the player should score. The pressure is on the striker. I’m not helpless, but if I stay long enough and don’t dive too early, I have a big chance of saving.

“It’s cat and mouse. I might do a dummy one way and go the other way, or look right at the kicker. Nervous kickers look to the corner in which they want to score, or they tend to.

“I’ve been in penalty shootouts a couple of times, but I’m never nervous because I have nothing to lose – if the player scores, he’s a hero, but I’m not a loser. Even if I go the right way, the striker should score every time if he hits the ball hard enough. No goalkeeper should put pressure on himself.

“In recent years, goalkeeping coaches have had info about the strikers – what they do and don’t do with a penalty, what they’ve done recently, their overall record – but what do you do with that info? Do you stick with it and watch him look in a certain corner? And what if he puts the ball behind the spot when the info says he normally puts it in front?

“In 2004, I was playing for Molde, in Norway, and we were heading for relegation. We were 1-0 up against Bodø/Glimt, and whoever lost the game would go into a relegation play-off. They got a penalty, so there was huge

pressure on the guy to score. I’m thinking he’s not going to dare to go too far into the corners, and I went the right way and saved it. He didn’t place it away from me at all.”

THE SCIENTISTThomas Schrefl, Professor of Functional Materials at the University of Sheffield, says, “The change of angular momentum of leg and foot equals the angular momentum of the ball after impact. Because the total mass of leg and foot is several times that of the ball m, the ball leaves the foot with a higher velocity than that of the foot. If a player kicks the ball at a speed of vBALL = 36m/s, the velocity of the foot before contact with the ball is v1 = 27m/s. Here, v2 is the velocity of the foot after contact, j is the moment of inertia of the leg and foot about the hip, and l is length of the leg. The air time of the ball, which is the distance to the goal divided by the velocity of the ball, is 0.32s.

“The keeper has to decide to move in one direction at the point of the foot-to-ball contact. To reach the ball, he has to jump towards the ball with velocity of 8m/s. Neither knows whether the other will go left or right. The keeper will choose the probability of jumping left, jL, so as to make the kicker’s success probability identical for kicking the ball left and right. This strategy will maximise the keeper’s success rate. pLR is the scoring probability for a kick of the ball to the left and a jump of the keeper to the right.

“Kickers and goalkeepers mix left and right so that their choice is unpredictable. The analysis of many penalty-kicks shows that the success rate of the keeper is 20 per cent.”

for the love of playing a game that is woven into the fabric of society. In towns like this, heroes are real, tangible. They fix your car when it breaks down, manage your bank account when you deposit your wages, grow the food that eventually winds up on your plate. Hurling, the fastest field sport on the planet, a game that marries almost balletic grace to the speed and aggression of an international rugby three-quarter and the hand-eye co-ordination of the fighter pilot, is a sport grounded in a reality and in community. So much so that it is still resolutely amateur.

Today, in Thurles, the mirror for Ballyhale’s Henry Shefflin is a Portumna kid called Joe Canning. Twenty years old and he’s already being called the future of hurling, the one who will take on the Kilkenny player’s mantle. It’s easy to see why. Midway through the game, he intercepts a loose pass, shoulders aside a challenge and, twisting his almost-too-large frame with incongruous speed, spins to unleash an almost-blind hook shot that arcs some 60m to land between the posts for a point. It’s an astonishing display of skill, and one he repeats numerous times during the furious 60 minutes of play. The sort of skills that get rewarded with contracts, sponsorship deals, celebrity. Not here though. Tomorrow, on Monday, nursing bruises the colour of egg yolks, he’ll go back to college in Limerick to continue his business and marketing degree. That’s the job. Hurling is simply the passion. An unavoidable one.

“People say that because it’s an amateur sport and you’re not getting money, you might tire of it,” he said recently. “I think, if anything, that drives you on a bit more. Because you’re standing for something, you’re representing something. You’re part of a parish, a small-knit community. And you’re even prouder to be part of that. You’ve a sense of identity. That’s something I never get sick of.”

That much is clear from the moment Canning and his team-mates take to the field. Ballyhale appear blinking into the low winter sun as if emerging from hibernation. There’s something almost lethargic about the way they settle onto the bench set up in the middle of the park for the team pictures. By contrast, Portumna burst from the tunnel like cartoon animals, frenzied, fidgety, itching to get to it. Damien Hayes, the team’s right corner forward, has the word ‘energy’ scrawled down his forearm. It’s a motivational foible

A�ROUGH�GUIDE� TO�HURLING

repeated throughout the team. Across the backs of hands, on the inside of wrists are penned a variety of phrases: ‘work like a dog’; ‘inspiration’; ‘teamwork’. When the team photo is done and the squad briefly huddle for a last thought before the 2.30pm throw-in, the words of their physio come echoing back and, indeed, they do look ready to die for this.

The game has been over for 40 minutes. The pale sun is beginning to drift towards the horizon, but there’s no sign of anyone leaving the pitch. No one from Portumna at least. Ballyhale have been demolished. The scoreline is emphatic: 5-11 to 1-16. Canning has scored the lion’s share of those five goals and 11 points, racking up an individual tally of 2-5. In the morning, the papers will be full of ‘the king is dead, long live the king’ eulogies to the arrival of Canning as a superstar and the (temporary?) passing of Shefflin. Just at this moment, however, the superstar is busy chatting with the mother of a team-mate.

She breaks off the conversation to greet a friend, enquiring after her
