In the first division of Paraguayan football, the match between Club Rubio Ñu and Club Olimpia presented an episode destined to become one of the most incredible curiosities of the season.
The involuntary protagonist of the action was striker Sebastián Ferreira, the author of a goal that was both strange and lucky, writes "Gazeta Express".
A lo que came fue a esto…😇

It all happened in the 56th minute, when Ferreira himself appeared at the penalty spot to take a penalty.
His shot was saved by Rubio Ñu's goalkeeper, who appeared to have avoided the danger.
However, the action did not end there.
On the rebound, defender Fernando Martínez tried to intervene to move the ball out of his area.
His shot, strong but inaccurate, took a completely unpredictable trajectory: the ball hit Ferreira in the face, who was still near the penalty area after the penalty was taken.
The ball thus changed direction and slowly ended up in the net, turning a missed penalty into a completely accidental goal.
A surreal episode: Ferreira celebrated "shocked", while teammates ran to hug him.
On the other hand, Martínez appeared completely incredulous, covering his face with his jersey in frustration over an unfortunate and decisive action. /Express newspaper
