Scored in the face and flew to the knockout. Funny goal in Russian football. Video

It is very curious to follow the Russian First League at the start of the season. A solid composition of participants promises intrigue in the struggle for promotion. Other teams in the selection of performers are fundamentally not inferior to the participants in the Premier League, and there are enough specialists with European Cup experience on the coaching bridge.

But even in those matches where, it would seem, there are no big stars both on the field and on the bench, there is something to see. Other players risk their health to bring victory closer.

Ready to score in any situation

Vladikavkaz “Alania” in the game of the second round of the First League defeated the Moscow “Motherland” with a score of 3:1. In the middle of the second half, the hosts, losing one goal in the score, remained in the minority – Alexander Kleshchenko received a red card. The opponent took full advantage of the chance, bringing the matter to a landslide victory. Goals “leopards” were given for every taste – in one of the episodes, midfielder Artur Galoyan managed to distinguish himself with his face.

The goal of Alania in the 76th minute turned out to be curious and was largely the result of the mistakes of the Rodina players. Defender Albert Gabaraev, being under pressure, decided to pass to goalkeeper David Sangare. The gate guard tried to return the pass, but performed it extremely awkwardly, hitting the face of the midfielder of the Vladikavkaz team Artur Galoyan. The 23-year-old football player then went to a knockout, and the ball, bouncing off the player’s face, landed right in the net of the Moscow club’s goal.

While Sangare was angry with the football ball, the net and himself, Galoyan continued to lie on the field, suffering from pain. Teammates ran up to him – first of all, to congratulate him on scoring the goal. Then the medical team arrived.

According to the press service of Alania, everything is in order with the midfielder. He eventually brought the match to the end, scoring in it not only with a goal, but also with an assist. Opponents should be more careful with Arthur in the future – the football player is ready to score from any situation, without worrying about which part of the body he sends the ball into the net.
