#4 Longest Goal - Asmir Begovic

Stoke City v Southampton - Premier League
Begovic celebrates scoring the "screamer"

This isn't just the longest (longest distance between the goal and the scorer) goal in Premier League history. It is the longest among all goals ever recorded. You can just tell it's going to be tough to beat this one.

This was a fluke effort from Bosnian goalkeeper Asmir Begovic (currently at Bournemouth). In the match between Stoke City and Southampton on the 11th of November, 2013, with only 13 seconds on the clock, Begovic casually served a long kick downtown with plenty of power.

The ball bounced on the edge of the opposition penalty box, rose to an unusual height, and looped over Southampton's keeper Artur Boruc. It covered a great distance of 91.9 meters. The home fans were delirious, hardly believing how easily they had broken the deadlock. Sadly, they only drew 1-1.
