You've had a topsy-turvy game, coming from behind to lead 3-1 with 20 minutes left, before your opposition roar back with three goals of their own, with what is surely the winner netted with just a minute remaining. You may as well just give up right?

Not if you're the captain of Highland League team Inverurie Loco Works you don't.

Midfielder Neil McLean decided he'd have to rescue the game all by himself by getting the ball from kick off, beating five players and then lobbing the 'keeper as he scored this sensational wondergoal in the Scottish Cup third round game to rescue a draw and a replay.

What's more, opposition Annan Athletic are currently top of the Scottish League Two, making the achievement all the more remarkable.

"You just call on me brother, when you need a hand. We all need somebody to (Mc)lean on" was almost certainly what the fans were singing as the team left the pitch. Sensational stuff.
