Video: James Rodriguez re-created his own FIFA goal in real life for Real Madrid

James Rodriguez’s goal against Getafe was a re-creation of his goal on FIFA

James Rodriguez is definitely one of the best footballers in the world currently, and he has been showing that week-in, week-out, with his performances for Real Madrid. His recent free-kick goal against Getafe was a re-creation of a goal he scored on FIFA many years back, and it looks like he was playing as himself, for Real Madrid!

So, sometime back, when Rodriguez while playing FIFA, he got the chance to take a free-kick, and the manner in which the set-piece was executed, and the way the goal was scored, was identical to how his goal against Getafe on the last day of the season was.

What makes this even more interesting is that it looks like the player who took the free-kick was James Rodriguez (the game version) and it also seems like he was playing for Real Madrid (the jersey is the most obvious giveaway).
