Throughout history, we have often encountered goalkeepers who also know how to score, but such a thing is doubtful if it was in world football: a goalkeeper who scores in three games in a row - and not just, in a penalty, but in three different free kicks.



This incredible achievement belongs to veteran Nelson Ramos, one of the oldest players in Colombian football.

It started when he found the net in his Boca Juniors de Cali's 1-1 draw with Atletico, continued with a 0-1 win over Brancilla, reaching a climax this week, with a shrinking goal from more than half a yard away, in a 2-1 loss Lloydopar.

Three goals, three consecutive games in the Colombian sub-league - amazing.

According to the popular statistics account "Mister Chip", it is not certain that this is an all-time record as the legendary Rodrigo Sunny scored four goals in three consecutive games in a week, in late 2005, and yet - two of Sunny's goals came on penalties, unlike Ramos.

Boca actually claimed that this was a new record: "A world record in professional football. Ramos and Boca can write their names in the history books."



Ramos, 39, has played for a variety of teams in his country since starting his professional alumni career at a relatively late age - 25. He was also included on the Colombia squad for the 2011 Copa America and recorded four appearances in its ranks.

In total, he scored 11 goals throughout his career - seven free kicks (three of them in 2021) and four penalties.
