The second division of Portuguese football experienced an unusual Saturday (30th).
This is because Portimonense defeated Benfica B 2-1, even after losing two goalkeepers to red cards before halftime.
The first was sent off for a hard foul and the second for handling the ball outside the area.
As a result, Brazilian defender Jarleysom took on the challenge, playing the rest of the match as the goalkeeper.
And for those who thought he would fail, they were wrong!
Besides helping his team, Jarleysom secured the victory by practically saving everything at the back!
The Brazilian went viral for the number of saves in the game.
Check out some of them in the video below!

The home team opened the scoring early with Ruan, at 4 minutes.
Benfica B would equalize at 70 minutes, with Rodrigo Rêgo.
A minute later, Tamble Monteiro would secure the three points for Portimonense in a crazy game.

With the victory, Portimonense climbed to 3rd place, accumulating seven points in four games in Liga Portugal 2.
Benfica B, however, remains in 14th place, with three points in four matches.
