Hami Mandıralı's free kick is listed at 266 km/h in some sources. We did the frame-by-frame analysis. It isn't even close.

You may have seen Hami Mandıralı's free kick cited as the "fastest shot in football history" at 266 or 269 km/h depending on the source. We decided to actually check it.

Using frame-by-frame analysis of the original footage:

  • Distance: 40.4 yards from goal
  • Frames from contact to net entry: 30 frames at 25fps
  • Average speed: 112 km/h (±4 km/h margin of error)
  • Estimated peak speed at moment of contact: 144 km/h

144 km/h is still a very strong strike. But it is nowhere near 266 km/h. For context, 266 km/h would mean the ball travelled 40 yards in roughly 0.27 seconds. At 25fps that would register as barely 7 frames. We counted 30.

The 266/269 km/h figure appears to have no credible source behind it. Much like Ronny Heberson's Guinness World Record listed speed, these figures likely originate from misquotes, radar gun misuse, or simply made up numbers that spread unchecked across the internet for decades.

Football has a misinformation problem with shot speed records. Frame-by-frame analysis and basic physics consistently tell a very different story.

Oğuz Çetin: Marco Asensio bizim en değerli oyuncumuz. Süreye ihtiyacı var. Büyük taraftarımız şunu bilmeli ki Asensio bizim vazgeçilmez bir oyuncumuz. İsmail Kartal için de öyle. Sadece biraz süreye ihtiyacı var. Oyuncular kendilerini %100 fit duruma getirene kadar böyle sancılar yaşayacağız.

I designed a new scoreboard system for the Süper Lig because beIN doesn't bother

Here's my take:
Across Turkey, street signs follow a familiar visual hierarchy: a dominant street name supported by a smaller colored strip identifying the neighborhood, district or municipality.

That simple structure became the starting point for the team modules.

The primary field carries the club identity, while the secondary strip introduces an additional team color. A familiar piece of the Turkish streets is translated into a compact broadcast component.

New fan of the Super Log, have some questions.

So, I have followed European football for a very long time. Starting from Premier League, I have kept tabs on other major leagues across the continent. But for years, I have only glanced at Super Lig. I have enjoyed watching European games involving the Big 3, but now I intend to follow the league for a couple of reasons.

One as a Liverpool fan seeing Mo Salah join Trabonzspor has spiked my interest in seeing how it goes. Number two, I am working on a football blog and I think apart from big transfer news or big games in the league very few English language outlets cover Super Lig extensively. So I have a few questions.

Like, I know Besiktas, Fenerbache, and Galatasaray are massive and Trabzonspor is historically the next big club. But what about the rest of the league? Like in Premier League terms how would you compare the teams in the rest of the league.

Also how are the attendances. I have read and seen the Turkish fan culture and it is bonkers tbh, far better than some big leagues. But is it limited to a few big clubs again? Like I saw a stat that the lowest attended game in Super Lig had only close to 600 fans and I guess this number is too low for a top-flight league.

I want to understand how the Turkish fans view the rest of the league and is it that vague as made it to be apart from the big 3/4.

Another question is how do you guys rank it with other comparable leagues like the Eredivisie and Portugal's Liga or even the Ligue 1. If you had to rank Super Lig in the Top 8 leagues, where it would land in terms of competitives within the league, fan culture, attendances and overall quality.

Sorry for the lengthy post. I would appreciate the responses. Thank you.
