UTA Arad forward David Popa ran into a goalpost while celebrating a ‘no-look’ goal during a 1-2 defeat to Argeș Pitești in Romania’s Liga II yesterday.

The 20-year-old, who played for Birmingham City at youth level, scored with a Firmino-style finish after his penalty was initially palmed away.

Perhaps disoriented by his sideways glance, Popa wheels away to celebrate his equalising strike and collides head-first with one of the uprights at the Stadionul Motorul.

To make matters worse, Argeș Pitești retook the lead just minutes later and held on for the win.
