WATCH: Getting ready for Lionel Messi? Tigres goalkeeper Nahuel Guzman does magic tricks during penalty shootout in Leagues Cup win
Club Tigres goalkeeper was spotted performing a magic trick just before saving a penalty in the shootout against the Vancouver Whitecaps.
WHAT HAPPENED? The Mexican side beat Vancouver in a shootout after the two teams were locked 1-1 in a round of 32 fixture in the Leagues Cup, a tournament that has been taken by storm byInter Miami poster boy Lionel Messi. After Andre Vite's opener was cancelled out by Andre-Pierre Gignac, Guzman took centre stage during the shootout.
Before the fourth shot, the Argentine keeper borrowed a few seconds from the referee. Much to the bewilderment of the players and the audience, Guzman stooped a little and put both his hands inside his mouth with his gloves on. He then started pulling out a lengthy string from his mouth and kept on doing so until the whole of it was out of his system.
After that, he was seen clutching his belly a few times before eventually getting ready to face the spot-kick. Ranko Veselinovic's attempt was a feeble one towards the keeper's left and the shot-stopper had little trouble in saving that.
