Goalkeeper attack: Aaron Cawley pleads guilty

At Sheffield Magistrate's Court today, a football fan has admitted attacking a goalkeeper after running onto the pitch during a televised football match.

Aaron Cawley, 21, from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, pleaded guilty to assault and entering the field following Sheffield Wednesday's home match against Leeds on Friday night. Cawley was arrested after Wednesday keeper Chris Kirkland was pushed in the face during the game at Hillsborough.

Kirkland, who has played for England, was shoved to the ground moments after conceding an equaliser in the 76th minute. A man was clearly seen running from the Leeds fans onto the pitch and pushed Kirkland in the face before running back into the crowd.
