A goal looked certain as the visiting attacker followed in after the ball came back off the crossbar but talented young keeper Leonard somehow flung himself in the way.
With the Bears keeper stuck and the net hanging in the air, the whistle then went to stop play.
The incident, captured by @FisherFilmCrew, happened during the Bears’ 1-0 Southern Counties East Premier Division on Saturday and has been viewed thousands of times on social media.
On social media, Leonard posted: “Weirdest save I’ve made ever.”
