There have been a fair few stupendous own-goals this season, and on Sunday, the Serie A clash between Fiorentina and Sassuolo produced yet another horrendous ricket, courtesy of ‘keeper Andrea Consigli.
Receiving the ball from a team-mate in his six yard box, Sassuolo’s Consigli was under very little pressure when he somehow guided the ball into his own net after miscuing a simple pass.
Oh dear – Sassuolo keeper has had an absolute shocker here… https://t.co/juXhhp2X0Z

What a disaster!
The game ended in a 3-1 home win for Fiorentina, who stay fifth in the Serie A table. As for Consigli and co., they stayed impressively placed in seventh.
