You might not have heard of the X-League before, but it’s the top-level professional American football league in Japan and it’s been around since 1971 - it was known as the Japan American Football League up until 1997.
Takeru Yamasaki is a 26-year-old kicker in the league and there’s a chance you might see him on a football team in North America in the near future if he keeps making kicks like the most recent one he shared on social media.
In-game or not, kicking a field goal isn’t as easy as it looks and with or without players it’s never easy to make a kick from 73 yards out.
