Goal by Goalkeeper - Airton


The Brazilian Under-17 semi-final was lit up by a freak goal scoring by Juventude keeper Airton after 38 minutes.
After collecting the ball in his box, Ayrton undertook a standard up-and-under to restart the play. Accordingly the 16-year-old shotstopper launched a punt upfield without any great ambitions of creating a goalscoring opportunity from his long booted kick.
That was until Caxias keeper Bernardo had a brainfreeze following a miscommunication with his own centre-half. Instead of ordering his defender to deal with the high ball, no instructions were passed between the keeper and his so-called protector. That meant that when the defender opted to chicken out of heading the ball clear, keeper Bernardo was caught in no-mans-land with respect to the bounce.
