This is just tremendous. We've seen scorpion kick saves from goalkeepers and attempts to score with scorpion kicks, but this might be the first backwards scorpion kick own goal.

Defender Festus Baise for Hong Kong First Division side Sun Hei pulled off the acrobatic move late into a match against Citizen AA, floating the ball over his goalkeeper's head and neatly into the net. Luckily for Baise, his side managed to retain their lead and win 3-2, so maybe even he can appreciate this flukey beauty.
