- Wayne Wicks and Steve Zeoke versus Ben Krueger and Charles Osmond in Lexington, KY, September 5, 2016. The final two teams out of a 91-team field.
The man of the match here is undoubtedly Jim Stevens of Inside Foos Productions, who also generously gave me permission to post this video. The commentary and video editing brings outstanding professionalism to an amateur foosball match, and automatically makes even the game-play seem better.

Along with practice/experience, nothing assists your game more than studying video.
Good foosin' to you.
This is the best caster i've heard in my entire life. In any sport. Ever.
Yeah. Jim Stevens is great :)
RainbowMan759102937400 he is quite good, look up a person from Philadelphia named Jim Jackson. He's phenomenal.
Every caster that are well known will definitely have their qualities. But the major factor will always be when they do enjoy casting the game, which will then reflect towards the casting itself.
rivaled only by Chris Puckett
Jim definitely has the monopoly on foosball sportcasting locked up for a reason. He's amazing 👏
And at this moment, I knew what was my destiny as a human being. Congratulations for the two teams!
1:26 that was a magical shot holy shit.
Super fast even in 0.25x
Ik
Your right wow!!
Steve Zeoke played amazing👏
No adjustments needed because his defense was so solid. That 2 bar euro is so tough especially for people who never see it.
Thanks for the stroll down memory lane. I miss foosball! I also miss playing with Steve!
I miss playing with you also. I am ready to try again and be more relaxed and thoughtful. I think I can play with less panic now and play more rationally, lol. You* were the offense and took over game 2 huge. You played pro level, stealing the ball at huge moments and were very very clutch. You saw me slippin and decided it was time to close up shop, lol.
We'll do better next time. Better than our 15-0 perfect season lol.
Let's never forget we won the worlds warmup event vs pros and masters that year too :)
@@stevezeoke I totally forgot 😆 they weren't pleased. That was fun!
Never knew such control would be possible. Pretty interesting to watch haha
Totally agree, I had no idea so much control and technical ability was involved in a game of foos until I see this video - unbelievable!
Great Game Guys!!!!
I'm Amazed That It's Actually A Sport But Hey It's Kinda Enjoyable And Relaxing To Watch. You Just Got A New Fan......
2:22 set the video speed at 0.25
Lol
If it not hit the defence it would be not a goal, i saw it after i played it the 3rd time lol, and that was with 0.25 *barrel roll lol*
I still don't know why they call it amateur, 'cuz that Defender on the right has some awesome skills on the goal line!
Thanks very much for the kind words. Yes, none of us were really amateurs any more, but it takes a lot of good results to finally move up in rank in foosball. They do that so we go to more tournament$ :)
So, it's tough to know how good your opponent will be, but the tournaments are very fun. All four of us moved up in rank after this match.
I play goal usually and feel I learned something from this goalie👍Great job👍It’s fun when you have someone owned like this😂
Holy... These guys are really good. Seen a bunch of pro matches that were way less technically impressive tbh.
Steve! ! it's me who cut your hair today!! You are awsome! My second son was very enjoyed to watch it. I hope you win on Thursday in this year. *^^*
Cheers!!!
OMG this is a thing? My life is saved!
Foosball.com will help you find tour players in your area or the nearest foosball scene to you..
Now I'm curious as to what the guy in the Hulkmania shirt said, lol.
I'm watching to research audio for a futuristic foosball videogame but was mesmerized by the play from my fellow Canadians, good stuff!
Thanks very much! After their 2nd goal of game two, Charles said, "Easy money".
We had just won the first game 5 - 0, and that was the last thing I expected to hear. I was caught off guard and very rattled, lol.
Wayne giving me the talking-to was to calm me down. I became so animated, they edited out my blow-up just prior to Wayne doing that, lol.
You putting any of the extra comments in your game would obviously be hilarious. Good luck with that also.
You need to hear/record the goals in person. Thunderous. There are friendly foos scenes across the country that will accommodate you and provide plenty of data. If you're close to us in the GTA, check out Teamplay in Markham on a Saturday night.
I can't believe that this is a sport but I love it
The Wolf Pack me to😂😂
The Wolf Pack Me Either I Just Wanted To See If It Was. Now I'm Amazed That It's And I Kind Like It. I Have Binge Watching For A Couple Hours LMAO LOL..
Great Game Guys!!!
That front pin from goal is awesome. Never would expect someone with no sleeves to be reading a defense like that.
Lol. I'm from Canada. Kentucky felt like a big oven.
I hear ya man. I'm from Florida and when I moved up north it felt like the cold of deep space at first. Takes a while to get acclimated.
I’m the pistol Pete of foosball, my passing will get us in position to play here someday
We have champion ships in my school and they are not as extreme as this
School games are always intense
Zeoke U R THE PAL...Not first Rodeo of steve .. pal!
Wow, nice playing! That is some serious D.
Thanks, Robert. Great playing by you at the foosclub last night! I'll see you guys plenty more. Very fun.
Solid defense there
The control is epic
nice match
Very good
Zeoke is a God. As a defenseman I'm learning a lot
Too kind, bro. I had to have luck too :) That's always part of it. Yes! You learn lots from watching and then trying what you saw. Go to enough tournaments and you'll have it all fall together too :)
Will play this game in our company.
Zeoke, you're a beast, bro.
I'm having a tough time pinning the ball and doing a pin shot from the pin.. maybe due to the table (Atomic)? Any tips for quick snappy pin shot from a pin of the ball, per chance (other than practice, practice, practice)?
Thanks, Joshua! Definitely practice moving the ball around. When I shoot on the push-side or pull-side, I am dragging the ball from the top of it in the lateral direction of the lane I want to shoot in, while entering the back-swing of the shot. I trust that the ball will be in front of my man by the time the man comes forward and through the front-swing of the shot. You basically allow yourself to get used to it and not discouraged by missing a few. Your muscle memory and brain are doing way better math than we can consciously and will adjust until it's automatic. You can go short or long in either direction once you have the feel. I shoot open-handed (slide my hand down the grip, roll it back up again and catch the handle), but closed-handed works just the same way.
I hope that helps. "Unreal Foos" is a RUclips channel with killer tutorials by an amazing player/host. I believe he covers pin shots. That'll help even more. Experience against tour players, practice and videos are the fastest road to improvement :)
@@stevezeoke how long did it take you you learn that? Seems like the Euros and players from that region like to shoot this, but no one in America does. I was wondering if it was due to a steep learning curve.
Also, I hope you don't mind, but I did break down this video in a reaction.

Great, great video. I really enjoyed it!
Back in the late 80s, when Tournament Soccer tables were no longer prominent anywhere else, there were 200 of them spread out in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. There was a great scene. We had a few euro shooters, and they were the winningest. So I copied that, started beating everyone all the time, and thought I was the best in the world. Then I met the Toronto crowd, and then the US tour. I was wrong. Quite wrong.
Oops. You asked how long. I think it's getting decent after about 32 years. I got good enough to have a nice 3 bar in a year or so because front pin and back pin shots were commonplace, and as you know, you inadvertently learn from watching your partners and opponents too.
Lupa linda!!!
I was good shooting with the 2 man. Playing buddy's my buddy's playing against would argue block those shots. Buddy playing goalie said cant stop what I cant see. Lol.
Any1 else watching this at 12am drunk?
Cheers! I hope you'll be entertained :)
Yeah man cool shit
I liked your video too. Hypnotic, lol.
So true :))
Im watching this at 12am except im not drunk
good to include slow motion moments..
Yes. Good idea. I will request that for the next video.
You can watch it in slow motion, you know?
we need this in Arizona. not enough Foosball Tournaments.

Deadly....
Good playar
Do the ball have a magnet or its just the table?
No magnets. It's a heavy well-built table, so it's flat-surfaced, and the ball is heavy and grippy.
It's easy to get good at ball control quickly on a Tornado.
@@stevezeoke thanks sir, now i know.
why isnt yellow forward shooting a push side snake? wth... lol. pullside is totally blocked and he keeps shooting it.. a straight might go but push side is huge..
Had no idea this could be so tense
I guarantee we were all* pretty nervous and wanted to win sooo bad ☺
Am I the only person who misses the old Dynamo tables?
Nope. My game was way better on that table. The tour would've been screwed if they stuck with them :)
@@stevezeoke I learned to play on a Dynamo with ramped corners and a single goalie at the skating rink where I worked. We'd play after work sometimes until the sun came up. 16 year old me really had it made.
I learned on Dynamo and The Million Dollar Game Tournament Soccer tables. At 16 also. The '80s were my favourite.
Can't beat a old glass top Dynamo. Grew up playing on those. A Tornado is ok but the ball doesn't have the same reaction between the men for sure and it allows different styles of play instead of the one shot pull game. The Tornado does benefit those one shot pull shooters. Can't blame them if you can't stop it. I usually gave those guys a hard time because I could get to the hole consistently. It's easier going from a Tornado to a Dynamo than the other way around in my opinion.
@@kurtsherrick2066 remember those rubberized balls that could do an arch spin from one corner to the other? So cool. I only played on those tables a couple times-very fun
I have this game in my home and this game is to hard to play
Hi I'm new. Great game, some really fantastic shots. Why tho is the ball placed directly onto the table instead of using the hole?
+Rudy E.
Hi. Thanks! It is an ITSF (International Table Soccer Federation) rule that covers all officially recognized foosball tables and their player bases worldwide. Some of the tables don't have serve holes. I miss using them actually. It's been quite a few years now that they changed the rule I guess.
Thanks for the quick reply Steve! That's really interesting. I just started playing on the table at my new work and found out I love foosball!
I want to get really good and have already decided to buy my own table. Can you recommend me some good resources for developing my game and improving? Maybe also tips for a good first table? I would greatly appreciate any help you can provide.
My pleasure. As far as resources, I believe studying video and playing against higher ranked competition is your best bet. I am partial to Inside Foos Productions, who created this video and has others on RUclips and their Website for sale. Unreal Foos has great tutorials on RUclips also. You can find out where there is local foosball to you at foosballboard.net/phpBB/
Foosball scenes are always generally nice welcoming folks.
What table to buy depends on where you live. Whichever table has tournaments closest to you or is the most popular in your country. Which country are you in? United States?
I will definitely check those out and peruse for tutorials. Good to hear the scene is welcoming.
I'm in AZ, U.S.

Anyone else expect some crazy ass action
That was* crazy ass action! :)
Yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow passes to the yellow, and on to the yellow, and pass to yellow and shoot. What a great shot by the yellow.
Me to i have a legndry in my school
Are the spinning the rod? can you explain how is the technique they use by touching the rod with the wrist?
Edgar CONTRERAS BORJAS, it is explained here:
ruclips.net/video/TO1TyecR9Lw/видео.html
Thanks for the link Steve. Old school occasional player here and am getting a table for my teenagers now. Can't believe the high speed shot is legal. It makes for a boring game honestly. I see the same shot over and over. What do you recommend for a single goalie old school style table
I like the old Tournament Soccer and Dynamo tables for single goalie.
hello, like : Table Soccer
lol, what was said at the end?
Charles said, "I don't know why I said that." (His comment wasn't bad, I just got rattled by it and I overreacted.)
I foolishly said, "That's alright. That was your downfall." I have since apologized profusely.
Why are there 13 pieces instead of 11?
There are no ramps in the corners. The extra pieces are just for getting the ball out of the corner
why is there a dotted Line on the attack position, is it possible to shoot from a wider angle?
Great question. Yes. Angles are possible, but trickier on Tornado than other tables.
The dots show the lanes you can score from and the width of the goal. The defense can only cover two spots, so something is always open.
@@stevezeoke thanks but why is it trickier ? I'm french so I usually play on bonzini
@@FreGZile Bonzini is cool 😎 The shape of the feet is too square on Tornado.
Eu jogo isso bem na loka
I like a Tornado but it is not a glass top Dynamo. Much better table for combos and players that move the ball on the toe or heal. We played a different game in the seventies and early eighties then they switched from the Dynamo's as the competition table to the Tornado. It's very hard to explain the difference. Am glad to see at this tournament they haven't slicked the table up like in some places which I like becuase I learn playing and passing and setting up on the heel and toe. But I could play just bouncing in between the men but I prefer to play with the table slightly tacky because I prefer shooting a lot of different shots instead just a pull. But everyone needs a money shot and that usually is a pull but mine was a toe because I could go both ways and cut the ball between the men if I get your timing down. That's why it's good to have fast ball control and move the ball to kinda see the goalies movement and timing. Am 57 now and have had two shoulder surgeries and I can't play seriously anymore. My partner died four years ago. We traveled all over playing Dynamo Tournaments in the South and Midwest. The problem then we both were coke heads but we still won a lot of Tournaments because we grew up playing before we got home trained. We held down steady jobs so a few times we drove like 600 miles and barely made it in time to sign up. Leave work after staying up the night before and then drive sometimes ten hours and play without maybe a nap in the car. I miss those days.
Very cool stories and foosball talk, man. I'm grateful you shared it on my video. Thanks. I grew up on Tournament Soccer and Dynamo tables. The Dynamos had the most insane grip for front or back pin. I could do any bank from any position on the 3-rod too. Sorry about your doubles partner and to hear that you aren't able to play tournaments anymore. Everyone from back then still fits in and wins their share :)
There are probably a few who's names you would know or even recall having played against.
I've been playing this wrong?
the front guy left side has to be left-handed, he has dominated over the 5 bar but he can't do much in the 3 bar
At this point in the tournament, that team had played 15 matches in a row...tough grind coming from loser side of the bracket. I think he was tired. My 5 (guy on the right) was super tired and got lucky with a hot goalie and some favorable pick ups.
I’m here because of the Louie V table
Steve Noki is really good
+Shark Flap Thank you, sir - if you mean the goalie on the right. Steve Zeoke* :)
Steve Zeoke you are welcome! And yes I knew that wasn't how to spell your last name but it reminded me of noki which is cool, as is your last name
+Shark Flap You're right. It sounds cool. I do have a weird last name, lol.
Steve Zeoke haha I promise I have you beat in the weird last name department 😂
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks very much! I saw you at the earthquake chat 🙂

i love how it is dominated by men
Good shit

“That’s alright it’s your dumb fault?!?” Last 4 seconds?
"That's alright. That was your downfall."
He apologized for a comment that I overreacted to during the match that was edited out by the production team. I apologized to Charles for those last 4 seconds of this video on Facebook a few days after.
Who want to play with me ?
Offence plan in left side is very bad
I was lucky on defense a little bit. Those guys have won many state championships :)
@@stevezeoke agreed. I think the forwards strategy would be straights, and longs all day. You raced those shots well and were hard to time. First time reading this comment section. Took a pandemic to participate 🤣
No groupies eh
Oh, those guys'll get some tang for sure, bud.
Se va be, ganci e rullate. Cristo sono in nazionale anch'io.
Gli statunitensi manco il calcio balilla riescono a giocare in modo dignitoso.
when they made the ball and table slick they took much skill out of the game
old timers from tournament soccer left its a bangers game
So much emotion. These guys need to settle down.
I am playar
omg
good

Roletando eu não assisto.

I can play this game at that level they are playing 😎
That is Wonderful. Pat yourself on the back, again.
Wayne @ 4:18 checking his phone........hahaha!
Family in Canada. I'm rarely away but when I am, I'm definitely playing foosball 🤣
foosball went south when it went to slick tops ,balls and took away ball controll to the shooter
I agree. Those glass tables and marbles are brutal
Guys with fast hands and ball control made it look like magic. it wasn't all set up pull shot lather rinse repeat. Guys like me we made it move and flow so you never knew what was coming!
@@dudesweet1583 slick tops and balls ruined the creativity of foosball. I was never great but I could always make you wonder what was coming next.
That made it fun and I took on anybody.
I like the old white balls that were not sticky at least is not tony or frenchy toe kicks that made it unwatchable I love bump or 2 many front shots toeing and moving around boring always was to me I like the old days when the pros did pull and push bump shots more elegant snake rolloevers collingnon stuff tony spreadman yes very talented robots boring again give me a push kick or fake push kick then pull it back from the far man to the middle now that was talent.
what
and yellow teams defensive zone when blacks shooting off 2 rod is atrocious... look at the goalie setup o.O
Many things are needed to improve absolutely. Thanks

These guys are terrible, no speed on the shutter shot or the pull shot!!
