Amazing ,

But I'm confused, did he still fail to stop it going out ( I've no idea American football)

Tidgy

no they dont have to put it on the ground like in rugby, if both feet are in its a score

Loved the commentators' "That was impossible...you have to be kidding me..." assertions.

Never watched any cricket, dude? Try catching a rock hard ball that might be traveling at 100+ mph.....with less than one second to see it and react.

obviously not impossible he did it.....

Felix.

No he caught it, but he was over the line. So that's still six runs.
The other team now has the chance to break and go for the 'nine-darter'
Unless of course they played the joker.

Is it really sport or is it theatre. ?

I quite like American football, especially the highlights games

The ball has to cross the line whilst held by the player, even by diving over the line, a touchdown is given, no grounding required. Two feet must be touching ground before player leaves end zone with a catch in the end zone.
