Meet Vovo. He is the official mascot of Ceara Sporting Club in Brazil.
As far as mascots go, he’s a bit of an odd one — he is basically just a bearded old man with a giant head.

But on Sunday against Fortaleza, Vovo got a chance to shine and prove to the world he’s still got it.
He didn’t disappoint:

Yep, that is Vovo making a diving “save” of sorts, ensuring that his moment didn’t pass him by. Notice how he is in a ready stance and tracking the ball the entire time before lunging after it.
The old, giant-headed man has got hops and if Ceara ever need a backup goalkeeper, they know where to look.
