Friendly matches tend to present an opportunity for experiments. But attempting a shot from beyond the half from a set piece? That's probably crossing the line.

Unless it results in a goal, of course, such as the one Zenit St. Petersburg defender Domenico Criscito scored during a friendly when his 55-yard strike sailed into the back of the net.
