From The Daily Mail: Hit and run! Watch the moment Brazilian masseur is chased off the field after his TRIPLE SAVE sends his team through
The lower leagues of Brazilian football never disappoint when it comes to unexpected antics, but having a team's masseur sneak onto the pitch to make a series of decisive saves must be a first even in South America.
With a game between Aparecidence and Tupi locked at 2-2, Aparecidence masseur Romildo Fonseca da Silva (also known as “Lefty”) can be seen stealthily slipping into his side's goalmouth when his keeper strays out of position and blocking two certain goals before clearing the ball.
'Lefty' then races off the field while being hotly pursued by a riotous mob of opposition players and officials before escaping with his life (if not his dignity) through a door into the stands.
