But don't tell that to goalkeeper Ricky Drury and Holbeach United.
With his side trailing 1-0 to Worcester City and on the verge of exiting the competition at the Second Round Qualifying stage, the stopper came up for a free-kick. With the ball floated into the box, Drury pulled off an incredible overhead kick that went flying into the bottom corner of the net.
The sublime 94th minute goal saw Drury mobbed by his team-mates and a few of the smattering of fans in attendance jump over the pitch-side barriers in joy.
Check out the incredible goal below...
The match ended 1-1 and will see the sides meet again in a replay.
