Watch KHL player sneakily try to score goal by lifting net (Video)

KHL

There’s that old saying, “If you ain’t cheatin', then you ain’t tryin'.” This was probably going through the mind of Sibir forward Jonas Enlund during Saturday’s KHL playoff game against Traktor.

With Sibir trailing 3-1 with under seven minutes left in the third period, Enlund was tied up behind the Traktor net by Ilya Davydov as both battled for the puck. That’s when Enlund tried to fool the officials with a little sleight of foot.

Points for creativity, for sure.

The goal was obviously waved off and Traktor would go on to win 4-1 to take Game 1 of the series. Sibir would even things up with a 5-2 win on Sunday.
