Lucas Bergvall scores COMICAL own-goal as Tottenham make nightmare start to Europa League clash with AZ Almaar

Lucas Bergvall may have a sleepless night after scoring a comical own-goal against AZ Alkmaar in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16.

The match at AFAS Stadion began positively for Tottenham, who recorded two shots against their opponents, although none were on target.

However, following a swift attack from AZ Alkmaar, midfielder Peer Koopmeiners took a corner kick that became memorable for Bergvall's hilarious own goal.

The Swedish youngster's plans did not go well after he attempted to clear the ball from his team's box but inadvertently ended up netting Guglielmo Vicario's goal.
