Watch this incredible moment when four River Plate players are unable to slot the ball home against Belgrano, with only the goalkeeper to beat.

In the final moments of the match valid for the Argentina first division league played last Sunday, with Belgrano trailing 2-1 and desperately in attack in search of an equaliser, four River Plate players mount a counter-attack which they are however unable to finish off as keeper Lucas Acosta kept the ball out of the net off a Tomas Andrade shot.

River Plate went on to win the game, but what happened in these dying seconds has been described as the miss of the decade, or the save of the decade, depending on how you look at it.
