This is the tear-jerking moment a dad ran onto a football pitch to celebrate his young son scoring a goal in his first match since finishing cancer treatment.
Ryan Martin, 41, can been seen running towards son Hunter, six, seconds after the youngster scored a goal after returning to his team following a six month break.
The emotional dad hugged his little boy as his team mates cheered.
Hunter Martin was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma last year after suffering from stomach pains for the last three years.
The cancer develops in the lymphatic system which are a network of vessels and glands spread throughout your body.
Hunter had to take a six month break from playing his favourite sport while he underwent intensive chemotherapy to battle the cancer that was "everywhere".
In February, Hunter was told the chemotherapy had been a success and hadn't spread any further.
In a triumphant return to the pitch, Hunter re-joined his under-sevens teammates earlier this month for ten minutes - and scored a goal.
Ryan who coaches the Wisbech St Mary's team in Cambs, said he was "blubbering like a little kid" after his son scored the goal.
