Cristiano Ronaldo
Just ten seconds remained in the eight minutes of stoppage time, and Al Nassr’s stadium was already erupting in joy. The celebration had begun—Cristiano Ronaldo was finally about to become champion in Saudi Arabia.
Then, from a throw-in into the box, something went terribly wrong in goalkeeper Bento’s mind. He leaped over a teammate, with no opponent nearby, and deflected the ball into his own net.
An own goal that will go down in football history.
