Is this the one where it hit the bar, rebounded, then bounced off the Scottish defenders head (natch) then hit the bar again and went in off the goalkeeper lying prone on the floor having twisted his ankle in landing after trying to reach the second header on the bar ?
I thought not.

 

Not quite there...

The scorer was Lawrence Shanklands and there's a connection between him and the goalkeeper.
