Is this the best save you've ever seen? Consett goalkeeper's stunning stop against South Shields

A non-league goalkeeper has gone viral online after a stunning save in a cup semi-final.

With Shields striker Gavin Cogdon's effort destined to find the bottom corner, former Blyth Spartans stopper Jeffries somehow kept it out in a save which defied logic.

It wasn't enough to secure Consett a place in the final, with the Mariners going on to win 3-1 at Belle View, but it did ensure the home side took away at least one moment they'll never forget.
