Pic: Scunthorpe goalkeeper poses for selfie DURING the match against Portsmouth

Irons keeper Sam Slocombe didn't have much to do on Saturday, and he was snapped pausing for a very quick selfie with a Pompey fan

The Irons keeper Sam Slocombe didn’t have much to do on Saturday as his side strolled to a 5-1 win at home against Portsmouth in League Two. So much so that he even had time to pose for a selfie with Portsmouth fan Bradley Saunders. Pompey fan Saunders tweeted the pic and to be fair, the keeper looks as shocked as anyone else.

 

 

It was 5-0 at the time the picture was taken so Bradley can justifiably say that he was indirectly responsible for the Portsmouth consolation goal. His concentration must have been affected as Portsmouth’s Michael Drennan stuck one away ten minutes after the picture was taken.

The keeper, who had pretty much nothing to do during the match went to get a drink of water, where the Pompey fan who was sitting on the wall behind the goal, saw his chance, threw his arm around him and took the picture.

Opportunism at it’s best. As far as selfies go, we reckon this one’s a keeper…..ahem
