Whatever you’re up to today, hopefully you’re doing it as well as a quick-thinking ballboy for Tottenham Hotspur overnight.
The Premier League soccer club was up against the wall in its match against Greek side Olympiacos, having given up a 2-0 lead.
It was still down 2-1 when the ball went out of play in the second half. Enter the ballboy, who shot from his chair and handed over a replacement ball for the throw-in — a decisive move which proved to be the catalyst for an equalising goal (Spurs went onto win 4-2).
