A nightmare own goal...published at 13:33
Football
Picture the scene. It's 0-0 in the cup, the 95th minute, your team is holding on.
Deep free-kick. The last one to defend. Dirk Kuyt's all over you, seconds left against your fierce rivals... the ball comes in, you swing a right boot to clear, but something's wrong... horribly wrong.
The ball seems to go through you, it hits your left, trickles over the line, your team beaten... pandemonium as Dirk wheels away with an enormous grin.
That's what happened to Joel Veltman last night, as Feyenoord claimed a 1-0 victory in the Dutch Cup over Ajax.
Also, there was this absolutely massive banner in the ground before kick-off - have you ever seen anything like it?
