luckyluke 2 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Think it was an own goal. That didn't stop Owen trying to claim it though, cheeky little shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Its time they made the rule very simple and leave no room for interpretation. Just give the goal to the last person on the attackign team who touched it. It won't matter if it was on target before a deflection or if it deflects at a right angle! The defender doesn't want an own goal against his name and the attacker wants a goal to his credit so everyone benefits and you don't need a bunch of people sitting on "dubious goal panels" quite often fucking up simple decsions as to who scored. As it stands i though they were supposed to give it to the attacker if the original effort was on target and Beckham's was, and thats before FIFA said in this world cup to give even more benefit of the doubt to the attackers.

Own goals are part of the game. Clearly an own goal by the Paraguayan last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay 10 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Remember niko dabizas great diving header own goal, think it was against spurs? I think that it would have been wrong to give it to someone else such was the brilliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordieshandy 0 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 And that Darlington own goal, where the lad flicks it on to his head then puts it past his keeper, who could you attribute that to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikko 20 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Or that villa O.G that was basically scored from a throw in. You can't credit it to the throw in taker as you can't score direct from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
