Shot goalkeeper completes match

An amateur goalkeeper in Bosnia has been shot during a match.

However, he played the full 90 minutes and appeared to be unaware of the bullet in his cranium.

The goalkeeper did have a sore head, but assumed that the pain stemmed for a collision with a goal-post.

The goalie later also experienced difficulty speaking and was then taken to hospital.

The bullet was surgically removed and the goalkeeper is in a stable condition.

A man has been arrested for firing a bullet into the air.

It is believed he did so at a wedding celebration near the soccer pitch where the wounded goalkeeper was playing.
