With his team already leading 2-0 in the 77th minute, Requena took what initially looked like a fairly innocuous goal kick.
However, with Colo-Colo goalkeeper Brayan Cortés well outside of his penalty area, the ball bounced over his head and towards the goal.
To add to his embarrassment, Cortés stumbled as he tried in vain to chase the ball as it crossed the line.
According to TNT Sports Chile, the goal was scored from a distance of 101 meters which would break the record for the longest-range goal in history.
The current record is 96.01 meters, set by Tom King in 2021 during a match between Newport County and Cheltenham Town in England’s fourth tier.
FIFA, soccer’s global governing body, recommends the size of a professional soccer pitch should be 105 meters by 68 meters.
Requena said he thought altitude – Cobresal’s stadium is 2,400 meters above sea level – might have played a part in his remarkable goal.
