This Is the Worst Own Goal You Will Ever See

Daniele Padelli managed to score an own goal a foot away from the net with a nearly impossible mis-hit.

This might not be the greatest goal you've ever seen, but it is no doubt one of the most entertaining ones. During a Serie A match against Empoli, Torino's Emiliano Moretti passed back to his keeper Daniele Padelli at the exact same moment Padelli's lost control of his left leg. As the ball slowly rolled to him, Padelli tried to pass it back to the other side of the field and hit it so poorly that it rolled backwards into the open goal. He might have actually been better off completely whiffing on it. At least it still would have had a chance to hit his other leg or something.

Incredible own-goal howler from Torino's keeper as he passes the ball into the back of his own net. http://t.co/Vy1nOqjILf

The angle from the goal line is just brutal, too. Padelli crouches, hoping against hope, as the ball continues on it's embarrassing journey, but there was nothing for it.
