VIDEO. In Italy, the goalkeeper earned a penalty and saved the team from defeat

The match of the 14th round of the Italian Serie A between Lecce and Bologna will definitely go down in history.

It was remembered by fans for the fact that Lecce goalkeeper Vladimiro Falcone earned a penalty for his team in the last minutes of the match.

By that time, the guests were leading 1:0 and Falcone decided to go into someone else's penalty area in the 90th + 6th minute of the meeting. When joining the attack, one of the Bologna players violated the rules on the goalkeeper in his own penalty area.

The referee did not immediately decide to award a penalty kick, but first looked at VAR. After this, a penalty was awarded and in the 90+10th minute it was converted by Roberto Piccoli. Thus, Falcone saved his team from defeat.

After 14 matches in Serie A, Lecce is in 13th place with 16 points, while Bologna is in 7th place with 22 points.
