Not the best clearance you’ll ever see…
Following a 1-1 draw with Icasa in the Copa do Brasil last night, Vasco da Gama defender Tiago was unhappy: “This result is like a defeat for us. We did everything badly.”
Vasco may have underperformed, but none of their players had a bad night quite like Icasa keeper Ari, who came out too far for a set piece and ended up turning the ball into his own net.

The Finns should probably stick to F1
While Germany were busy nearly losing to Wales in Mönchengladbach last night, Finland were getting their arse handed to them by Russia. Babyfaced striker Andrei Arshavin put his name on the scoresheet, but not before the Finns put away two own goals. Ouch.

Brazilian goalie forced into Paul Robinson-esque blunder
Internacional shot stopper Clemer has been playing professionally since 1988 - maybe this howler will speed up the old duffer’s decision to hang up his boots.

The consequences of Riise’s horrendous own goal on Tuesday have rippled through Liverpool, to the point where gutsy young graffiti artists who should be impersonating Banksy with their street art have taken to scrawling angry slogans on the walls of Liverpool’s Melwood training ground instead.

Champions League semi comes down to bad fortune and a worse haircut
If it weren’t for Riise’s unfortunate error, Chelsea fans would be calling for The Toad’s head this morning - his tactically-confused side were all over the place and clearly not very well motivated. Considering the fact that a Benitez-managed side has never scored at Stamford Bridge, Grant could become the most clueless man to ever end up in a Champions league final.

A poached effort that most strikers would be proud of
Hungarian Champions Debrecen found themselves 2-1up in the second leg of a cup tie, but they had lost the first leg 2-1 to underdogs Fehervar. The latter simply needed to run the clock down to pull off a surprise victory, but instead they conceded a penalty and a ridiculous own goal.
