A non league match on Saturday afternoon sees a crazy finish 3 goals in 3 injury time minutes including a 94th minute 60-yard winner.
On the 27th minute, fast feet from Roberts on the left beat his man who played a perfect ball through to Baker, and sent the ball into the bottom corner giving the keeper had no chance.
That was the scoreline right up until the 63rd minute when a corner was whipped in from a corner and beaten from close range in the air.
Wimborne were back in front on the 92nd minute, a very deep free kick near half way, crossed in by Oakley, found its way missing everyone bouncing into the top of the net.
Marcus Day looked set to have scored a lat Bristol Manor Farm equaliser in the 93rd minute, but from the halfway line Wimborne lob John to claim victory straight from the restart.
Wimborne Town summed up the surreal-ness of it all superbly via their website: “Occasionally you attend a football match when something so dramatic, so extraordinary, so unexpected happens that you know it will be talked about for years.
“And in this game it happened during the last three of the five minutes referee Smith added on at the end of the game.
“After 90 minutes had been completed with the scores level at one each, stunning goals from distance by Oakley Hanger (Wimborne), Marcus Day (Farm), and Dan Bartlett (Wimborne) left spectators rubbing their eyes in disbelief.”
Bristol Manor Farm described it: “What happened next could not be written. Almost directly from kick off, the in form Bartlett hit one from the half way line that someone found his way in for a dramatic winner.”
It was the winner though that went viral on social media, with footage capturing multiple angles of a goal from just past the halfway line.
⌛️When you concede in the last minute of injury time and faced with a draw. There’s only one way to reply.

Scorer of the wonder goal Dan Bartlett said: “I heard a shout from the side. [Chris] Senior just said hit it. I knew there was just 10 seconds to go. So I just hit it, if it goes in, it goes in. Lucky it went in.”
When asked if he knew it was going in, he replied: “I knew it was going on target, so I did it pretty well, I thought it might have a chance, and yeah it’s gone in so.”

Senior said on the same starting 11 as Tuesday: “Yeah, you know what, we looked at it and Tuesday night we thought it was a really professional performance. And actually the last it started all deserved to keep their shirts. So we’ve gone with the same eleven, which is nice to be able to pick the same eleven consecutively. And yes, for me, just about the impact themselves could make. And obviously throughout our tenure, really.
Interviewer: “The first 90 minutes, because I just want to get on to the time added on as soon as we can. The first 90 minutes, we scored a goal that typically defied our play and they scored a goal that typified their play. Fair enough.
Chris: “Yeah. For me today, first off, I said tothe boys, I said, we’ve been okay. We were kind of probably at sevens, six and seven out of tens. And I kind of said, we’ve got more gears, we need to show those gears. Otherwise I said, it’s going to turn into a bit of a scrap or it will turn into a bit of a unpredictable game, which we kind of did. We didn’t get a foothold in the second half. We were off, it all over. We couldn’t really get out.So we changed the formation slightly last 1015 minutes or four or two, which kind of helped us,I think meant we could get paired up withBaits up front and the goals. Yeah. Where’d you start then, Brian?
Interviewer: “Well, if I can just go back to the first goal, the goal in the first half hour. It started with a diving header from Colin Morrison down to Aaron Roberts, who did a lovely bit of magic and then played that man Baker through and he scored for one nil. Great goal. And then theirs was from, I think it was from a corner. Josh Ford heading in.
Chris: “Yeah. You said about our strengths. Our strengths are get it done then. And that’s what we need to do. First half, especially against them, the reports we had, that’s what we’re going to hurt them, sort of feed them. Falls in between the fullbacks and centre up and that kind of typified the goal, our play sort of paid off. We’ve got it in and around the right areas and Barts is deadly at the moment. He can’t stop scoring, which is great for us, and give him half a yard and that’s what you get.
Interviewer: I think that’s seven games that he’s scored consecutive games. He’s scoring with eight in seven. Remarkable.
Chris: And hopefully we can continue that and no reason why I can’t. And then touching on their goal. The first one is frustrating because we knew they were strong and set pieces, but they’re a big side and we just kind of not dealt with a ball into our six yard box, which is frustrating. And then, to be fair, the lads taken a lot of sticking it well, but we’ve got to react to that. And we did, I think, if I’m honest, like I said, we weren’t great second half, but we’ve shown the right characters that we’re looking for and that was the most pleasing thing for me.
Interviewer: “Would you have settled for a point going into the last few minutes?
Chris: “I think given our performance, probably second half. Yeah, they probably feel that they came out second half, had a bit more of a go and probably was yeah, it was still a second ago, but probably was done. But I’m going to take a bit of credit for that because actually said the message to get on was I fancy Barts to shoot from the kickoff. Tell Barts to take us on, shoot because the keeper is a little bit off the line most of the sort of game.
Interviewer: “Can we just go back to so it was 1-1, then we went into time that it. Had no idea how much the rest of this is going to be.
Chris: Five.
