Barcelona target pulls off wonder save in the Isthmian League, and it’s fair to say you can see why the La Liga giants are keen.
Worthing keeper Carl Rushworth, on loan from Brighton, showed his credentials with an incredible save against Folkestone Invicta, and the video of it has gone viral.

The footage was shared on Twitter channel Your Instant Replay on Sunday, where it has been viewed nearly 60,000 times, as well as get thousands of likes.
With just 15 minutes remaining on the clock, the visitors win a free kick, and once it was kicked, it looked certain of going into the top corner.
Rushworth however leaped to it, somehow getting a massive right hand to push the ball over the crossbar.
Barcelona want to sign Isthmian League goalkeeper Carl Rushworth and are reported to be preparing a £4 million bid for the player.
Scouts for Barca have been sent to watch the shot stopper in action at Woodside Road, according to The Mirror, and are clearly impressed with what they have seen.
Rushworth only joined Brighton from National league side FC Halifax Town in January last year.
He was also called up to England’s under 19’s squad for their European qualifiers against Macedonia, Luxembourg and Bosnia in November last year.
