Watch Pollok goalkeeper score with huge kick out in Scottish sixth tier

You've seen Bend It Like Beckham. Now watch Launch It Like Longmuir.

Unless you're a fan of Kirkintilloch Rob Roy who were on the receiving end in Saturday’s West of Scotland Premier Division clash with Pollok at the weekend.

Lok keeper Jordan found himself on the scoresheet with an almighty blooter down the park at Guy’s Meadow as the Glasgow side eased to a 4-1 victory.

With the visitors already leading 1-0 through a Stuart McCann goal - assisted by a hefty punt from his big-kicking keeper - Longmuir then launched another howitzer into the heart of the Rob Roy danger area after 34 minutes.

Unfortunately for opposite number Matthew Kerr the torrential conditions added to a major misjudgement.

Disaster struck and the red-faced Rabs number one was left to picking the ball out the net.

The victory keeps Pollok in second place in the West of Scotland League top tier, three points behind leaders Auchinleck Talbot in the race for promotion to the Lowland League.

Watch the goal for yourself in the video player above - 50 seconds in - as Longmuir joins a unique group of goalscoring goalkeepers including Alisson Becker, Peter Schmeichel and Paul Robinson to name a few.
