Metalist Kharkiv secured a last-gasp equaliser to take a 1-1 draw away at Chernomorets in the Ukranian Championship on Sunday, thanks to a "scorpion goal" from former Corinthians striker Willian.

Willian, one of five Brazilians involved in the encounter, came-off the bench to replace compatriot Marlos and grabbed his third goal in eight appearances for the Europa League side.

"It was a beautiful goal - quick thinking - there was nothing else I could do," Willian told Globo Esporte.

"The goalkeeper saved the ball and I was a bit ahead of it, so I allowed my body to go forward and shot with my heal. It was similar to the save of Higuita."
