Typically when dogs invade the pitch it's an adorable scene that's impossible not to love.

When this pooch invaded a Brazilian Cup match, it was less cooperative on the cuteness front but still a good-luck charm, albeit in a potentially painful way. 

Eduardo "Dudu" Mandai of Sao Paulo RS decided to be the good-guy dog-carrier of the day and escort the dog off the pitch during the team's match against Farroupilha. 

Mind you, at the time, Dudu's side was trailing 2-1. 

As he carried the invader off the pitch, the dog reacted by biting him. 

Later on in the match, Dudu scored the game-winning goal. And it was quite a good goal too. 

Afterward, he uploaded a picture of his carrying the offending dog off the pitch and dubbed it the "bite of luck."
