Player Jordan Evans scores, makes an assist then gets ‘ARRESTED’ by police in the 85th minute of a Welsh match on Saturday afternoon.
Baglan Dragons came back from 3-1 down to take all three points against Cwmbran Celtic with two goals from Tom Davies, a header from Lewis Holmes and an excellent finish from Jordan Evans to earn an important win.
But footage has since surfaced on Twitter of the moment South Wales Police officers walked onto the pitch and a player was applauded off the pitch when taking away.
@LFCTJG tweeted: “Just a casual game in the Welsh leagues. A lad gets subbed on, scores a goal and gets an assist. Then gets arrested in the 85th minute. Only in south wales 🤣🤣🤣”

Here’s how Twitter users reacted after a player scores and gets an assist before being ‘ARRESTED’ by police in the 85th minute of the Welsh match…
@Remi_Whitelock: Seen a lot of shit on here on Jordan Evans from Baglan this afternoon. I think the whole situation by South Wales Police was totally unacceptable that’s given him a bad name in Welsh football. Crazy talent and a top top boy who’s been misunderstood. If you know you know
@Pel_DroedCymru: Blokes a very good footballer! That’s all the Welsh footballing public need to know. No need to mix it with his personal life and the establishment could have waited 10 minutes to not bring this to everyone’s door!
@aaron_challoner: I have several questions…
@oakley_tomos: Pretty standard day in the Cymru South then.
@PaulosEFC: 😂😂😂😂 what a story.
@Logan_swfc: could say his finishing was criminal
@Gillykins58: My husband used to be a ref back in the 70s. Similar thing happened – player got arrested mid-game. Captain asked if they could bring the sub on. Yes ok. Shouts to the police to ask if they can have the arrested player’s shirt as they hadn’t got a spare 🤣
@Spencomms: Oh and the game finished 4-3!! can’t believe I missed this 🤣🤣🤣 Glad I don’t have to write a report on this game @CwmbranCeltic
@_ChelseaLB: What a shift from him
@BHWAFC: Did the goals stand
@Soapy777: Did they have to play with 10 men or was he still able to be subbed off? 😂
@qdmdawe: Hell of a Game, Baglan go 1 – 0 up, 1-3 down, Jordan comes on and the come back is on, assist and score the last goal to put Baglan ahead 4-3… Then arrested to top of the match. Game had it all!
@chewbertie69: Last sub gets arrested coach must be fuming
@caswell009: Imagine screaming “assholes” and “well done jordan” as hes being locked up 😂 bunch of clowns
@MickyC_NUFC: Non-League is some place at times @HGB1892 @Brown_Shark

@jack_2831: Clapping him off like he’s received a controversial red card 🤣🤣🤣
@JordanAR1995: I need more context to this. I also need to know what happens in this event. Do the team get to sub him off or is it similar to a red card? 😂
@C20George: What the fuck 😂
@Alexsmith7631: This is something that would happen in dream team. He’d secretly own the club as well
