CNN —Lazio goalkeeper Ivan Provedel produced the unthinkable on Tuesday after scoring his team’s 95th-minute equalizer against Atlético Madrid in the Champions League.
The 29-year-old is the fourth goalkeeper to score in the Champions League and the first since Vincent Enyeama netted for Hapoel Tel Aviv in the 2010 qualifying rounds.
“It’s a night I’ll remember all my life,” Provedel told UEFA after the game finished 1-1.
It hasn’t sunk in; later, I will realize that I scored in the Champions League.
I hope the point gives us momentum as motivation and enthusiasm.”Provedel became just the fourth goalkeeper to score in the Champions League.
