A clever corner kick turns into a football trick play that leaves the Chicago Fire stunned and the New York Red Bulls celebrating an equaliser. What looks like a mistake at the flag is actually a perfectly timed sneak attack, with Sasha Kljestan and Lloyd Sam working together to catch the defence off guard.

The referee and linesman allow the move to stand, and the ball is quickly worked into the box before the Red Bulls score. Chicago only realise they have been outsmarted after seeing the replay, when it becomes clear that the corner had already been taken before the defence noticed. It is a sharp example of football intelligence, set-piece deception, and split-second timing.

For fans of football highlights, tactical analysis, set-piece routines, and unusual goals, this moment shows how a simple corner can become one of the most talked-about plays in the match. It is also a great watch for anyone searching for soccer trick plays, clever corner kick routines, and memorable MLS moments.

Ideal for viewers looking for football trick play clips, soccer highlight reels, tactical set-piece videos, and MLS corner kick goals. This is the kind of smart, surprising sports content that appeals to fans of match analysis, sneaky set-piece goals, and unforgettable football moments.

00:00The American looked like he had no idea what he was doing as he lined up for a corner kick
00:04and
00:05instead just dribbled the ball in towards the box. It should have been illegal. In football,
00:10a player taking a corner kick isn't allowed to touch the ball a second time until another player
00:15has touched it. But the linesman and the referee said nothing. And as the Chicago Fire players
00:20scrambled, the ball came into the box and the New York Red Bulls put it into the back of the
00:25net,
00:25equalizing the score. Chicago Fire were confused and it was only when they saw the replay that they
00:31realized they'd been swindled. Because when Red Bulls Lloyd Sam set the ball up by the flag for
00:36Sasha Kleshton to take the corner, the Chicago players didn't notice it, but he'd actually
00:41already taken the corner. And as Chicago ran into the box with their backs turned to the ball,
00:46Kleshton checked that the linesman had clocked what they'd done and after he got the okay,
00:51they successfully pulled off the perfect sneak attack.
