See a small boy trip over the ball in his first ever match.

Joanna Rubalcaba uploaded footage of her little brother playing in goal in last week’s game to her Twitter account.

As play gets nearer to the child, watch as he steels himself, ready to be involved in the action.

Seemingly barred from using his hands, he runs to meet the ball with his feet but ends up taking a tumble and lands on his back.

The valiant youngster soon recovers though and gets back up with the help of a supportive audience.
