Lithuanian GK Scores One Of The Most Embarrassing Own Goals Imaginable
We’re going to harbor a guess that you were not watching the Bulgarian First League match between CSKA Sofia and Cherno More on Saturday. In all honesty, it probably would have been a waste of time. But it did have one of the most epic own goals we’ve ever seen.
Manuel Neuer Makes Unbelievable Double Save — And It Didn’t Count Because The Ref Hadn't Blown His Whistle
You gotta feel for the Bayern Munich goalkeeper. Early in the match against Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday, an absolutely insane Manuel Neuer double save on Kevin Volland seemingly kept the German giants from going behind on an early penalty kick.
But because the referee hadn't blown his whistle before the penalty was taken, it was all for naught. The kick had to be retaken and Wendell stepped up to bury the second opportunity, giving Leverkusen an unlikely lead inside five minutes.

Loris Karius Gets As Far Away From Liverpool As Possible

On August 25, the slippery-handed netminder agreed to a two-year loan switch to Istanbul giants Besiktas. According to his Twitter feed, he was welcomed with open arms.
Alisson’s Outrageous Flick Inside His Own Box Draws Hilarious Reaction From Jurgen Klopp
The main talking point from yesterday’s Premier League encounter between Liverpool and Brighton — outside of further confirmation that Trent Alexander-Arnold is one of the brightest young full backs in world football and Mohamed Salah’s finely taken goal — was undoubtedly Alisson’s flick over Anthony Knockaert at the edge of his own box in the 69th minute with the Reds nursing a slender one-goal advantage.
