WATCH: Arbroath sub goalkeeper scores amazing 35-yard screamer vs Raith Rovers

Arbroath substitute goalkeeper Ali Adams came off the bench to score an unbelievable 35-yeard screamer against Raith Rovers in the Scottish Championship on Saturday.

With just four players named on the bench by Arbroath and three substitutions already made by manager Jim McIntyre, the away side lost defender Aaron Steele to injury and were forced to send on Adams as an outfield player.

With the ball bouncing some 35 yards from goal, Adams turned and struck a ferocious drive which flew past Raith goalkeeper Kevin Dabrowski and into the roof of the net.

Arbroath are second to last in the Championship with 17 points, just three more than bottom club Queen’s Park. Raith Rovers remain top, with 41 points.

Of course he’s just scored a thunderbastard. https://t.co/JtETwh7YbQ pic.twitter.com/xdNdGs3Ef3December 30, 2023
