Forward scores Ronaldo-style in Fluminense's Libertadores group, watch 📹 | OneFootball

Dominican forward Dorny Romero scored an unusual goal to secure Bolívar’s draw against Deportivo La Guaira, in a match from the same Libertadores group as Fluminense, this Tues

The curious moment happened when Venezuelan goalkeeper Jorge Sánchez dropped the ball onto the grass to restart play and did not notice Romero right behind him.

The striker reacted first, stole the ball with extreme ease, and only had to tap it into the empty net.

The play was quickly compared to Ronaldo Fenômeno’s historic goal for Cruzeiro in 1993.

On that occasion, the then-young No. 9 took advantage of an identical lapse by Uruguayan goalkeeper Rodolfo Rodríguez, of Bahia, to score.

Bolívar and La Guaira are in the same group as Fluminense, who take the field this Wednesday (15) at the Maracanã to face Argentina’s Independiente Rivadavia.

The Argentine side, in fact, lead the group after beating Bolívar itself in the opening match.
