The first is Argentinean legend Felipe Contepomi – in a Leinster versus Connacht game – where the infamous Galway gale was in full cry.
Contepomi’s penalty kick sails through the uprights, only to be blown right back at him.
The second was in a Heartland match between Mid-Canterbury and North Otago – where the restart was not only blown back over the kicker’s head, but kept travelling over his own dead-ball line.
In both cases, the referee made an unexpected ruling.
