“Worldie”

Definition

A world-class goal. The kind that pulls you up out of your seat. Usually a long-range rocket that flies into the top corner, the sort of strike most players never manage in a whole career.

Origin

British slang, a chopped-down version of “world-class.” It spread fast in the social media age, when every jaw-dropping goal got clipped, shared and shouted about online within seconds.

Used in a sentence

“Did you see that hit from forty yards? Absolute worldie. Top corner, no chance for the keeper.”
