VIDEO. Incredible goal from the reserve goalkeeper in the Scottish Championship

Yesterday, in the eighteenth round of the Scottish Championship, the current league leaders, Raith, hosted the underdog, Arbroath, on their home ground. The match ended in a 2-2 draw, an encounter that might have slipped from the average spectator's memory had it not been for the astounding goal scored in the 76th minute, signaling the beginning of Arbroath's comeback.

Arbroath's head coach, Stuart Malcolm, faced a challenge due to several injuries, leaving only four players on the substitutes' bench, including one goalkeeper. Malcolm had to make an early substitution in the 9th minute due to a defender's injury. After the break, he made two more substitutions, leaving only the backup goalkeeper, Alli Adams, on the bench. However, circumstances forced him onto the field when defender Aaron Steele got injured in the 58th minute, at a point when his team was trailing 0-2.

Within eighteen minutes, the goalkeeper showed his prowess. Adams stunned everyone with an incredible strike from the opponent's center-half, virtually turning around and finding the net. This unexpected goal by Alli caught Raith's goalkeeper off guard, unable to defend the goal.

For Alli Adams, this match marked only his second appearance this year. He last played in January for a different team. Notably, the 32-year-old goalkeeper has had stints with various clubs but rarely gained match practice, having appeared in official matches just seven times throughout his career.
