But a moment of genius drew Benfica level with goalkeeper Soares, 20, taking matters into his own hands.

The shot-stopper controlled the ball well outside his own penalty area and punted a long kick towards the opposition’s goal.

Soares’ strike cannoned off the crossbar and hit the goalkeeper before nestling in the back of the net.

Wild scenes followed with subs spilling onto the pitch and the keeper celebrating near the halfway line.

Soares’ goal sparked a comeback with Benfica going on to win the fixture 2-1.

After the game, Soares said: “I saw that their goalkeeper was one step ahead and, having the wind in favour, I decided to take a risk.

“It went well, it is something that will remain etched in the memory of many.”;

Fans praised Soares for his “amazing power and accuracy”;, while others dubbed the goal “Puskas award worthy”;.
