This takes the term ‘pushy parent’ to new heights.
A video of a father pushing his young son into the path of an incoming shot on goal in a soccer match has gone viral.
The footage was taken in mid-Wales between Bow Street Magpies FC and Ysgol Llanilar FC.
The boy’s dad pushes him to block the ball from going in the goal and initially he was successful.
However the ball just bounces off the under-eight-year-old player.
One of the opposition players is on hand to take a shot and score.
The dad then walks away, gesturing that he’s unimpressed.
