We’re going to go out on a limb and say that the weather conditions might have had something to do with this.

No offence to the lad but it’s hard to see Jhonatan scoring this goal without a little help from the swirling wind and bucketing rain.

The Operario stopper took full advantage of the storm to leave his opposite number struggling to get a hand to what was originally a ball up field during his side’s 2-1 victory over Nacional PR.

It’s a goal that would make Paul Robinson and Tim Howard proud.
