The reserve goalkeeper came in to play center defender – then scored a 30-meters-belter! (VIDEO)

A great story comes to us from Scotland to send off this year 2023. The second division side Arbroath FC is fighting to keep its place in the Championship, and in addition to that, in today’s away game against Raith Rovers also suffered personnel problems. The visitors arrived with only four substitutes, one of whom was goalkeeper Alasdair Adams.For the Red Devils’ coach, the Sherwood Forest can turn out to be hellAlready in the ninth minute, the Arbroath coach had to make a change due to an injury to the center defender, and at the beginning of the second half he introduced two more players from the bench, believing that this would help make up for the goal deficit. Only the aforementioned Adams remained as a reserve, who had to replace the second starting center defender in the 58th minute by force of circumstances and play in the field. After the hosts took a 2-0 lead just three minutes later, it seemed that the points would go to leaders Raith Rovers. However, instead of three, they had to settle for one.Arbroath had no outfield substitutes available when a player got injured so had to bring on goalkeeper Ally Adams.This is how he started a comeback to draw 2-2 💥 📹 @iain_latto pic.twitter.com/tcNaBUegsm— Robin Bairner (@RBairner) December 30, 2023 In the 76th minute, we got one of the craziest goals of the year as it was scored by none other than the reserve custodian Alasdair Adams. And what a spectacular goal that was, from about 30 meters! It was a signal to the guests that they could remain undefeated for the third time in a row, after they had a series of eight lost games before that. So it was. For their brave approach and not giving up despite their injuries, they were rewarded with a goal from the penalty spot in the 81st minute for the 2-2 final score.##NAJAVA_MECA_7769417##
