The moment Ghana star Inaki Williams NEARLY writes himself into 'World Cup folklore' as he sneaks up on Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa but SLIPS with a chance to equalize deep into stoppage-time... leaving Cristiano Ronaldo stunned
  • last year

Deep into stoppage time, with the African side trailing Ronaldo's Portugal 3-2, the Athletic Bilbao forward hid behind goalkeeper Diogo Costa, who had the ball in his hands. Costa did not check behind him and Williams (bottom left) sneaked up to win the ball when he had rolled it out. But the 28-year-old slipped at the vital moment (right) and Danilo Pereira cleared off the line as captain Ronaldo put his hand to his head in shock (top left) after the lucky escape. And ITV pundit Joe Cole claimed he could have 'written himself into World Cup folklore' had he managed to keep his footing and score a sensational last-gasp leveller.
