Chivas Goalkeeper Tono Rodriguez Scores From His Own Penalty Area To Win Match (Video)

Chivas Goalkeeper Tono Rodriguez, scored a shocking goal from his penalty area to win a match 3-1. The 27-year-old Mexican Goalkeeper, Rodriguez, scored his first-ever goal in his career, drawing comparisons to Asmir Begovic after scoring a goal from a drop-kick from his own box.

In a Liga MX game against Veracruz, Chivas were 2-1 up in the game in stoppage time with the away side putting the pressure on Chivas' box.

With a corner going into Rodriguez's box, the Mexican Goalkeeper plucked the cross out of the air, rushed to the edge of his box and hoofed the ball up the pitch as far as he could.


The punt easily past the Veracruz back-line and their keeper who had gone up for the cross, leaving the goal open for Rodriguez's massive kick to end up in the Veracruz goal, killing the game and finishing the game 3-1 to Chivas.

What a way to score your first career goal.

In those situations, the goalkeeper would be expected to hold on to the ball and waste time on the ground, take well over the normal six seconds you can hold on to the ball, but instead, he saw a window to produce a career highlight and did just that.
