An almost unprecedented goal was scored in the Venezuelan Professional Soccer League in the Final Phase match that gives access to the South American Cup 2023 , when Deportivo Táchira goalkeeper Christopher Varela scored a goal from goal to goal by clearing the ball.
The particular goal was recorded in the clash between Deportivo Lara and Deportivo Táchira last Sunday, August 2.
The minute began 34′ when Varela was threatened by two attackers while receiving the ball on the edge of his area. It is not clear if the goalkeeper calculated that with the clearance, the ball could bounce over the other goalkeeper and get between the three posts.
But what has been evident is the magnitude of the kick that the player from the aurinegro team gave.
The target scored by Christopher Varela served to seal the 0-2 win for his team.
Given all the commotion caused by the goal, the social network Twitter did not miss the opportunity to remember that this is the second goal of this type scored by a Táchira player FC.
And it is that, on 19 July 1987 in the match between Táchira and Club Atlético Independiente for matchday 1 of the Copa Libertadores, the Uruguayan goalkeeper Daniel Francovig scored the first goal from goal to goal in the history of the club Venezuelan.
35 years later, Varela relived that moment, although this time, in a rival field.
