This is the heartwarming moment a severely disabled teenager fulfils his dream of scoring a goal for his beloved football team.

Brandon Cooper, 17, bravely stepped up in the last minute to take a penalty for non-league Ilkeston Town FC.

The teenager is one of only 150 people worldwide to suffer from hydroxyglutaric aciduria, a condition that causes progressive brain damage.
