supersaint Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Have a look for yourself and decide if this is an own goal. Look at the action, and the text.. Not that I care, it just brought a smile on my face. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekluse Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Not sure, never seen a ball travel completely through a players body unknowingly and into the goal, I'd have to check the FIFA rule book. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gianno Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 maybe it went first on the post and then on the back of the goalie... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersaint Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 What I think happened - it doesnt show there - is that the Goalie stretches for the ball, but manages to box it into the bar and into the net. But after looking at it several time, I still cant really tell. Was funny to watch however:) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I though it hit the bar, then the keeper and then in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersaint Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 that might also be:) but if that is what happens, I cant see the reason for calling it an own goal? At least as a ref I wouldnt record it as a own goal in that situation. But if he box it into own net.. maybe.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 If it was coming out and then hits the back of the keeper it has to be an own goal as it wouldn't have gone in if the goalkeeper hadn't touched it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersaint Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 But in this case it looks like the GK is standing just on the line, so its hard to say if it would have gone in or not. But I agree with you - if the ball hits the bar then the GK that stands a bit outside of the line, its an own goal. Oh well, it was funny to watch - even though it might be a bug in 3D view (there are some other cases of GK own goals that are being reviewed by SI) depending on what actually happens in the ME.
