I've seen it reported in multiple places, including here, that this random deer on a soccer field scored a goal. But I just don't see it. What I see is a kid who kicked a soccer ball at the deer, but instead it went in the net untouched by any four-legged animal, as the terrified creature ran off into the woods.
