A Brazilian football clip has gone viral after a goalkeeper angrily reacted to being fooled by an opponent's Panenka-style penalty.
The move has achieved significant popularity with many football fans following Antonin Panenka's successful spot kick for Czechoslovakia against West Germany in 1976 where he lifted the ball to deceive a diving shot-stopper.
But in Brazil - where the style of shot is known as cavadinha or 'little dig' - a goalkeeper was less than impressed with the rival's actions during a penalty shootout moment shared on Instagram earlier this month.
The incident came during a rivalry match between Goias and Goiania E.C., two sides in the Brazilian mid-west, at the quarter-final stage of the local tournament.
The Goaiania player Luan Madson ran up to the ball and completed the cheeky lift, sending the goalkeeper Tadeu the wrong way, before celebrating.
