I mean long pass x long throw or whatever it's called not the whole sport
you should have compared the soccer player to a punter. punting is a difficult, thankless job even when you do it right.

Personally i think neither of the two positions in the pictures are the hardest to play in their respective sports. In football the cornerback rarely gets any media spotlight, and one tiny mistake can result in a touchdown. A similar thought could be made for the goalkeeper in soccer, who has to be incredibly astute AND athletic

American football is weird sport because wvery position does something else. You cant compare the sport as a whole. What a lineman does is 100% different than what a qb or safety does
For long pass/throw, footy needs more skill, american football needs more strength tho.

NFL quarterback, there is a reason teams trade everything in order to try and land one. There are only a few elite ones in the NFL, its the hardest because it requires timing, strength, technique and brains to play
Hockey goalie. Not even close

flop shots are easy. 30 yard bunker shot is hardest shot in golf
Is it harder to control something with your foot or your hand?

A quarterback is one of the most difficult positions in all of sports.
>>67830083
doesn't he just throw the ball to the guy that is running?
>>67831008
doesn't he just kick the ball into the net?
>>67831008
Well yeah. But he's also got to read defenses while 300 pound gigga niggas try to kill him.

In American football, the CB can be lousy and get away with it if his team has pass rush that destroys QBs or if the opposing team's QB is garbage.
QB is perhaps the most difficult position to play because it requires knowing all the plays and where all of the players are, throwing various types of passes (arcing, drop-in passes; short to medium distance bullet passes; and long bombs; sometimes while running) with touch and accuracy, economy of motion to be able to move in the pocket to avoid being tackled by pass rushers, all while the opposing team is sending men weighing over 300 lbs to hurt the QB.
The QB must also be able to improvise and have an intuition of what his receivers and the defense will do when plays break down. On top of all that, the QB must possess the courage and durability be able to complete a pass even when he knows he will be hit immediately after the ball leaves his hand.
I've only ever seen one QB with the above characteristics: Joe Montana although he didn't have the strongest arm.
I'm not aware of any other position in any sport that requires such a blend of fine motor skills, strength, durability, courage, creativity, intuition, and kinetic intelligence.
