The one in Spain a few years back where the keeper threw the ball into his own net. No idea who the teams were but it's been shown hundreds of times on tv.

Lee Dixon scored a cracking own goal from almost the half way line a few years back. Comedy genius that fella

1981 FA Cup Final

Man City vs Spurs

Tommy Hutchison scored a cracker of a header in his own net. Own goal for man city. He then goes up the other end and equalised for man city... great own goal, great result....

My dad bought the bbc video a few years ago... great cup final.. 1-1 and then a 3-2 win for spurs in the replay

Quite a few years back, Ronnie Whelan attempted a back pass to Grobbelaar, ended up lobbing him spectularly.

Ian Dowies header for and against West Ham when he forgot what end he was playing in.

Who was the leicester player who scored last minute own goals two weeks in a row a few years back? He's was a decent enough player if i remember...

Davey Devil

I believe that was Frank Sinclair.

wheres me jumpa

on soccer am i saw a keeper right on the goal waiting for the ball to land in his hands....it landed on his head and went into the goal!!

also in a junior soccer game, i saw a keeper kick out the ball, the wind was so strong the ball came back his direction, over his head and into the net! the game was called off soon after!

Frank Sinclair! That's been bugging me all week.

Gary Sprake has to be #1

MrJoeSoap

Don't blame it on Biscan
Don't blame it on Hamman
Don't blame it on Finnan
Blame it on Traore!!

He just can't
He just can't
He just can't control his feet!

That signature is taking the piss.

You can add Kevin Watson / Aidan Davidson between them to that list after todays super effort!

I don't think either were at fault TBH. The defender passed the ball back to his keeper (as you do), as the keeper went to kick it the ball bobbled over the bumpy surface.

MrJoeSoap

I'd blame the keeper, should have kept his eye on the ball and he didnt really have to kick it straightaway. Either way, a great OG.

JackKelly

yes, he should have noticed the ball jump up, milliseconds before he kicked it.

Or even looked at the ball.

buffon for juve over the weekend was quite a funny own goal/possible mistake.

the funniest own goal thou was the one they showed on match of the day this weekend by some guy in the non league or lower divisions who booted the ball into the roof of the net trying to clear it.
