Pitch invaders are common in professional sport but not so frequent during Sunday league games.
There are more dogs invade football pitches on a cold Sunday morning than people but one person in particular took it upon himself to dress up as Santa Claus and invade a local Sunday league game.
What happened next is nothing short of a Christmas miracle as old St.Nick went up top and managed to get himself on the scoresheet.
After hitting the Onion bag Santa ran off with a very jolly look on his face as the small crowd went wild.
Santa has been linked to several top European clubs following his heroics and will be represented by Mino Raiola.
