The Greek league game between Panionios and OFI Kreta was remarkable for a couple of reasons. firstly, all three of the goals scored were officially listed as own-goals and, secondly, the first own-goal of the night (scored by OFI’s Mirnes Sisic) was a truly extraordinary example of the art – with the Slovenian winger sending a defensive clearance into the night sky almost directly vertically, only for ‘keeper Stefanos Gounaridis to fumble it into his net upon re-entry, presumably due to the fact that it came down with ice on it…
There’s a far better angle of the own-goal available, but you’ll have to sneak out and watch the video here because the buggers over at NOVA have disabled embedding, but we promise you it’ll be worth the trip.
