Goalkeepers are widely recognized as the most important players on a football team as they shoulder probably more responsibility than the outfield players. A mistake by any other player will result in a goal being missed or possession being lost, but if a goalkeeper were to make a mistake then he would pay the ultimate price as his team would end up conceding a goal.

Check out the video below to see how professional goalkeepers playing in the best league in the world are expected to carry themselves.
Get ready for a laugh!
