Dodgy keeper

This is what you call quick thinking.

Goalkeepers get a hard beat, but they earn it sometimes due to silly mistakes.

But there isn’t many in world football that would be able to react to a mistake like Stranraer keeper Cameron Belford has.

He was in action for his club at the weekend when he suffered, what can only be described, as the football equivalent of a ‘wardrobe malfunction’.

Stranraer was facing Brechin in a Scottish League One clash when Belford’s studs let him down, and he slipped to the downward dog yoga position.

The crowd behind his goal began to cheer before Belford pulled off a remarkable save of his ego, and reputation.

Quality.

If only Steven Gerrard could have tried something similar this time two years ago.
