Greatest Own Goals of All-Time No.27
This week’s own goal comes from Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly in a seven-goal thriller away to Juventus.
Kouliblaly’s Napoli side had managed to come back from a 3-0 deficit to level the score going into the second of three minutes of injury time. This was a fantastic achievement as Juve were the reigning Serie A champions, having finished eleven points clear of Koulibaly’s Napoli in second place.
Danilo, Gonzalo Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo put the home side three goals up, before Kostas Manolas, Hirving Lozano and Giovanni Di Lorenzo got Napoli back on level terms.
Juve won a free-kick about 35 yards from goal wide on the right. The ball was swung in towards the near post. Kalidou Koulibaly tried to thump the ball away but somehow managed to slice the ball high into the top corner of the net, giving Alex Meret no chance in the Napoli goal.
