Are these the greatest football highlights ever?

It was the match that ended Fleetwood Town's dreams of making the League 1 play-offs, but it probably won't be remembered for that now.

Their match against Doncaster Rovers, who have been snugly nestled in mid-table for a few weeks now, finished 0-0 in a game extremely low on incident and excitement.

So low, in fact, that when Donny released their official highlights package on YouTube, it included a mere five seconds of 'action'. The astoundingly honest - and brilliant - video can be seen in all of its glory below.

According to this brilliantly dry match report from a Doncaster Rovers fan site, it seems the highlights real wasn't an unfair representation of the match at all. With both sides now with nothing to play for in their remaining games, there's every chance there could be a repeat of this before the players head off to the beach in a few weeks: Donny and Fleetwood fans, be very afraid.
