Yes you did - it was an own goal (sometimes these are credited to the striker to spare the defender's blushes)

MacPrague, you are correct. In an attempt to kick the ball as far from his own goal as possible, he managed to deflect it into his own goal. This is not uncommon in football (Soccer) when a defender is under pressure from several attackers and resorts to "desperation measures".

The most embarassing version of the own goal was many years ago when the side I support had just conceded a goal, and were kicking off again. The forward kicked the ball back towards the goalkeeper, who was knelt tieing his bootlaces, and watched helplessly as the ball rolled past into an empty net.

No, I was not being sarcastic. He did !! It is never intentional, of course , but it happens sometimes

thanks for clarifying (sp?), kenderina. enjoy the rest of the games! (I am really enjoying watching.)
