Defensores were already 3-0 down when a horrific mistake from their goalkeeper presented Juventud with a golden opportunity to go 4-0 up.
With an open goal in front of him, the Juventud player must have thought Christmas had come early, however the pooch had other ideas.
Hounding in from nowhere, beagle-eyed fans were stunned to see the dog save the ball on the goal line
Unfortunately for Defensores the divine intervention couldn’t inspire them to make a comeback, and the score remained at 3-0.
Unsurprisingly the dog’s actions prompted a brilliant reaction from the Internet.
People saying what a good save this is: it's a good height for a dog, the sort of stop you'd expect a canine of its quality to make, quite comfortable in the endpic.twitter.com/QrEt4m2ZLG
