But one fan came to the rescue quickly stripping off and chucking his brown jumper at him.
Harding wiped the ball on his clothes before passing it back with a small smile on his face.
The clip has gone viral on social media amassing over one million views in a matter of hours.
Fans loved it, one commented online: “Would of been some story if they scored off it.”
