This is how the unusual own goal occurred in Brazilian football
Sport Recife and Novorizontino faced each other, on matchday 12 of Serie B of the Brasileirao. The kick-off belonged to the locals, and very early they started losing.
Sport’s defenders began to touch the ball among themselves, until center back Allison Cassiano wanted to play backwards with his goalkeeper, Caíque França.

No Novorizontino player had touched the ball before the own goal was scored, which was a blow to the home team. At 38 they were already losing 0-2, with a penalty from Fabricio Daniel.
Sport Recife’s reaction in the second stage was barely enough for them to score with a goal from Uruguayan Fabricio Rodríguez, in the 78th minute.
