The ball hit the post so I'm not sure what you mean about a save.

Is what allowed?

THECORBYLOON

He appears to think grabbing hold of the back of the net had contributed to the goal not being scored but the ball hit the post anyway...

Clearly hit the post, the netting made no net difference.

Sorry folks, it seemed 1st showing that the goalie used the net to assist him. Looking again its true he didnt. Funny goal at the other end!

I love sport quirks/anomalies.

For ages I’ve been trying to find a you tube clip, and failing, of a Rugby Union game from the 80s (may have been the 90s), where a player headed the ball, so it wasn’t considered a forward pass or a knock on, and the subsequent try was awarded.

It was clever.
