THIS is the unfortunate moment a goalkeeper concedes a last-minute equaliser – against a pitch invader.
Football can be a funny old game and this clip proves that no amount of officials or video technology can get things right every single time.
The match is between Hoduran teams Olimpia and Motagua, with the latter set to pick up all three points in the Liga Nacional clash.
But as the clock ticks into the 93rd minute, the home side Olimpia get the bit between their teeth and launch a do-or-die attack.
However, at the same time, a pitch invader decides to charge towards the Motagua goal from the other side of the field dribbling an identical football.
Olimpia finally work their way into the box and as they fire off a shot, so does the pitch invader.
Both balls go flying into the net from their different angles and incredibly the goal is given.

Rules dictate the play should have been stopped as soon as the pitch invader placed a foot on the grass, and Motagua have every right to feel aggrieved.
