Fortuna Dusseldorf goalkeeper Raphael Wolf has revealed that he used his “transformer” to make a save.

The 29-year-old blocked an indirect free-kick from five meters with his penis before having to cool the afflicted area down by pouring water on it.

Raphael, who helped his side claim a 2-0 victory over Arminia Bielefeld on Saturday said after the match that he used his penis in an effort to keep the ball off the net.

“You always say with your balls but this one I saved with my penis,” Wolf told Bild.

“I never experienced such a free kick. First the pain was hellish but after some ice and rest it was okay.

“I have worn protection as a youth at Hallenspielen. But you can’t run properly – it’s crap!”

The win keeps Fortuna Dusseldorf three points clear of Holsten Kiel and at the top of the 2 Bundesliga table after 10 games.
