Iranian defender Nader Mohammadi has captured global attention once again after executing a spectacular somersault throw-in that directly assisted a goal in the Russian Cup’s fourth qualifying round.
Playing for Spartak Kostroma against FK Ryazan, the 29-year-old showcased his signature acrobatic technique to deliver a long-range throw into the penalty area, unlocking the opposition defense and helping secure a 2-0 victory to advance his side to the next round.
The highlight-reel assist marks Mohammadi’s third goal creation from a throw-in this season. His unorthodox flip-throw technique has transformed routine set-pieces into a potent attacking weapon for Spartak Kostroma, posing unique defensive challenges for opposing clubs in Russian domestic football.
