A YOUNG pitch invader consoled Defensa y Justicia goalkeeper Ezequiel Unsain with a warm embrace after his side were cruelly beaten late on by Boca Juniors.
The Argentine top-flight outfit looked to be holding on for a point at home against Hugo Ibarra’s side.
But the visitors snatched a dramatic winner at the death as Luis Vazquez scuffed home an effort in the 92nd minute.
Unsain sunk to his knees following the full-time whistle in devastation that he failed to keep a clean sheet.
And in an effort to cheer him up, a young fan darted on the pitch where he too dropped to the grass to give him a hug.
In heartwarming scenes, Unsain put his arms around the supporter before the pair rose to their feet together.
