Hilarious moment at Old Trafford (video)

In the 70's Manchester United as playing Leeds United at Old Trafford when a boy invaded the pitch and took a Willie Morgan cross and first timed a shot on goal.

The defender that tries to chop the kid down is Peter Lorimer of Leeds United.

N0t a bad strike either as legendary commentator Barry Davies noted in his hilarious remark "And a boy on the pitch playing the shot, and it wasn't a bad shot that he played". The thing that makes it so funny to me is how the camera follows the ball and you expect a United player to fly in from the left to shoot on goal and its some kid in boots. Have a look:

    Pretty sure its Leeds. I would say that the number 7 is Peter Lorimer and the other player who run across looks like Paul Madeley.
