A striker fell over while trying to turn a defender - but still scored with a wicked deflection from his bottom.

Footage shows the footballer receiving the ball from a throw-in during a local league game in Phang Nga, Thailand, on January 30.

He passed the ball back to a teammate and leaned to the side to try and run around the opposition, which caused him to fall to his knees.

However, while he was still on all fours, the teammate crossed the ball, which smashed into his backside and deflected towards the goal.

The defenders and goalkeeper were wrong-footed by the cruel deflection and the striker scored the goal - which proved the winner as his team ended the game 2-1.

Spectator Olive said: 'That goal was so cool. It would be hard to replicate that. The striker claimed it was deliberate but nobody believes him.'
