Goat invades field and tries to play goalkeeper

GOATS ARE PLAYERS TOO!

A Greek match on the island of Crete wasn’t going so well so a goat stepped in to help out. Literally. He walked onto the pitch and stood in front of the goal, ready to play goalkeeper.

The human goalkeeper, understandably upset that his job was being replaced, thought the best way to get a goat off of the field was to pull him off by his ear. Of course the goat didn’t like that, so he walked back on the pitch again. And again.

Eventually, the match was able to resume sans goat. Whatever, the goat was too good for them anyway.
