Goalkeeper takes a water break, opponents sneak in a goal

A goalkeeper has landed himself in hot water for taking a water break.

Things began brightly for China Super League side Chongqing Lifan last weekend, when they took a 1-0 lead against Liaoning Whowin in the first half.

But home team Liaoning scored an equaliser in the second half, thanks to an embarrassing error by the Chongqing goalkeeper.

With 10 minutes to the final whistle, Liaoning won a free-kick in an attacking position. Instead of organising his defence, the Chongqing goalkeeper opted to have a drink.

With the goalmouth unguarded, the home side took advantage by scoring via a quick free-kick and the match ended 1-1.
