A really good lunch-time read: https://www.playersvoice.com.au/maty-ryan-line-between-respect-over-respect/
"It was the same against Burnley. There was a moment in that game where a free kick came in and the ball sprayed across the box. I was working my way across the line for a 50-50 with one of their strikers. I managed to get between the goal and him, and stop it.
It’s hard to describe what happened next. The ball was popping around, I reached back and pretty much shat myself. I thought I was going to throw the ball into my own net. But the spin of the ball, or the way I wrapped my hand around it, kept it out. It was one of those weird things."
