FOOTBALL fans were left raging after a Hungarian keeper refused to let a six-year-old boy score from kick-off at the start of a second tier match.
The dream of youngster Enok Varga was to kick off the Hungarian Second Division game between MTK Budapest and Diosgyori VTK.
And he was granted that wish as he proceeded to dribble the ball from the centre circle in front of an adoring crowd.
But football supporters were left dumbstruck and furious when Enok reached the penalty area.
Remarkably, Diosgyori keeper Zsombor Senko opted to block the boy’s shot with his right leg.
Refusing to let that bother him, Enok sprinted to the left touchline to retrieve the ball, before charging at the goal once more.

But astonishingly, Senko again decided to save the child’s effort as he caught the ball and kicked it away.
The cameras then showed a disappointed Enok running back to the halfway line as the fans produced a chorus of boos aimed at the keeper.
Enok was then taken away in the arms of his brother.
Record labelled Senko’s behaviour “unforgivable”.

After the game, the keeper apologised for his actions and offered to invite Enok to Diosgyori’s next game against MTK.
Senko said: “We can’t wait to welcome him, his parents and his team-mates!
“In the meantime, I wish him never to give up on his dreams and to fight for every ball as he did on Monday evening!”
But fans remained furious with the shot-stopper and took to social media to vent their frustration.
Reacting on social media, one person said: “Why did he do it?”
Another raging punter added: “Can’t you put him in jail?”
A third responded: “What an absolute p****.”
And a fourth said: “The keeper didn’t get the joke.”
