His set play delivery is top notch, he was doing what all the top operators do from a free kick in that position. The aim is to bend the ball into the top corner whilst delivering the ball into an area that the strikers will run in on, the keeper is then in 2 minds he has to edge towards the centre of the goal in case a header comes in but if the strikers all miss it, the ball still bends into the top corner. It takes a quality player to execute that, yet you describe it as "an hopeful high ball" priceless.
