Goalkeeper Ben Wilson scored a 95th-minute goal for Coventry City to earn a 1-1 draw at Blackburn Rovers on Wednesday night.

The 30-year-old stopper came up for a corner kick deep into stoppage time and ended up bundling the ball into the net.

It was certainly not the tidiest of finishes from Wilson, who is clearly much more comfortable with his hands than his feet.

Indeed, multiple videos of the goal have emerged appearing to suggest that Wilson used his hand, or at least his arm, before nudging the ball over the line.

As this game was in the EFL Championship, rather than the Premier League, there was no VAR review to save Blackburn.

Take a look at the footage for yourself.

Should the goal have been disallowed for handball?

Wednesday’s 1-1 draw left Blackburn sixth in the table on 64 points.

Coventry are just one point behind in eighth but have played one game more than Rovers.
