Veteran goalkeeper, 70, to return to pitch for official game in Spain

Ángel Mateos González, 70, will play goalkeeper for Spanish fifth-tier club CD Colunga on Sunday, becoming the oldest player in an official Spanish match. The former miner retired 27 years ago but has assisted the team's keepers this season. CD Colunga said Mateos earned the appearance through dedication, not as a publicity stunt.
