You have to see this! Goalkeeper scores from his own half just 11 seconds after kickoff
Ukrainian goalkeeper Maksym Babiychuk pulled off an unbelievable goal in the Kyiv Rebel’s match against Carbon in the Ukrainian Second League. The shot-stopper found the net just 11 seconds after the opening whistle.
Babiychuk got the ball straight from the kick-off and launched it towards the opposition’s goal. The ball soared across the entire pitch and ended up in the back of the net, catching the Carbon keeper completely off guard.
Goals like this are a true rarity in football, and for a goalkeeper to score from his own half is especially spectacular. Usually, keepers become heroes with their saves, but Babiychuk grabbed the spotlight in a completely different fashion. Remarkably, this is already the second goal of his career.
The Ukrainian goalkeeper’s goal became one of the match’s most memorable moments and will surely be remembered by fans for a long time. The start of the game was nothing short of electrifying: the deadlock was broken just 11 seconds in. Ultimately, the match ended 5-3 in Carbon’s favor.
