A 'sweaty goal'

You learn something every day.
So I started playing Fifa 20 a few weeks ago when I bought an Xbox. And I set up a Pro Clubs side.
Some of the players that came in, were talking about scoring 'sweaty goals', and I only recently found out it meant squaring it for a teammate to knock into an open goal when the keeper dashes out.
Has anybody else heard the term?

Aye, however it’s primarily used in the context of playing FIFA. Haven’t really heard many people use the term when referencing real life

Yep my lad goes mad when I 'sweaty' him. I love his reaction so do it numerous times on various occasions over the week.

Having also got a child who likes to Xbox I have also heard the term used.
It's used as banter as a put down.
Similarly it was also a term the asians used to call us at school back in the 90s
I've also heard the term aimed at Scotsmen too, although that's a shortened version of cockney rhyming slang I believe.
Lots of new terms and words I hear today that I either wasn't around in my day or I don't know the new meaning of.
Sick = funny / crazy
Fat = good
Whip = car
Fish/newb = someone who is new to the game and/or rubbish
Peas = money
Just a few random words, that mean totally different to what i thought they meant

I thought this was going to be a discussion about some of the goals that Arsenal have scored against us.

Aye, I've never heard anybody say it away from Fifa. Even my 7 year old nephew knew what it was. I felt old!

Started the mind games early today Paul, you keep playing them 7 9s and JQ off.
When you start working out or knowing the odds, you will realise 10%-30% as hand win % isn't great.
You keep playing how you play, we need the fish to feed off, otherwise money cant be made, and we will need to pump in as much money as you do to play

Is this why Kane never passed to Sterling in the WC semi vs Croatia? Saving his street cred?

I've heard some of the dead keen super dads using it at football, as in "sweat it", I can't say I've ever been inclined to shout it out.

Another new slang term all the kids seem to be using is "bare". It means a lot apparently, so if you had bare money it means you have a lot of dosh. God I feel old

Listen up sweaty, you'll not be getting bare peas off me to play your sick game and beat all the newbs, I'm saving bare bare peas for a new whip.
He should get the message then..

First time I heard the sweaty goal term used was by KSI on YouTube. This was a good few years ago.

Was known as a 'jew goal' when I first started playing fifa but that seems to have been replaced now, thank goodness.
Always satisfying to score like that and get a message from your opponent that just said 'jew' as you knew you'd wound them up.
