Ben Richards-Everton scores spectacular own goal for Partick Thistle
A video has been released which shows the moment English defender Ben Richards-Everton scores one of the greatest own goals of all time.
Playing for Partick Thistle against Dundee in a Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) development match at Gayfield Park in Arbroath, the 22-year-old tries to break up a Dundee attack by chipping the ball back to his goalkeeper. Unfortunately for him and his team, he strikes the ball with too much power and it loops over the goalkeeper's head into the back of the net.
The embarrassing incident at least didn't cost his side, as they went on to win the match 2-1.
