Anthony Beuve was the unlikeliest of heroes for US Avranches when he equalised in the 95th minute against Grand Ouest Association Lyonnaise (GOAL) FC.<\/p>\n
Beuve, who was between the sticks for third-tier French side US Avranches, was called upon to stop GOAL from doubling their lead. Florian Raspentino attempted the infamous panenka spot-kick – a chip down the middle of the goal made famous by Antonin Panenka.<\/p>\n
However, Beuve stood firm and caught the poor attempt of a chip. And four minutes later, Beuve found himself in the GOAL box after Goncalves Pereira won US Avranches a free kick.<\/p>\n

The ball was whipped into the box, where it was met by the head of Beuve, securing US Avranches a huge point.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince I started playing football, I was chasing a goal,\u201d he said. "I almost forget that I saved a penalty before! It made it possible to snatch a point which was a little unexpected in relation to our performance." <\/p>\n

However, Beuve went onto reveal his goal was no flash in the pan: "I asked the coach if I could go and bother the defenders during a session during which the defenders were defending from set-pieces while the attackers were not invited to the session. I worked on it this week and scored this weekend.<\/p>\n
"It just goes to show that work also leads to results."<\/p>\n
Beuve's header draws striking comparisons to Lazio's goalkeeper Ivan Provedel – who nodded the Biancocelesti level with Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last month.<\/p>\n
