Daley Blind will be thanking his lucky stars tonight.
The Manchester United defender pulled off a real clanger tonight in the Capital One Cup game against Middlesbrough.
The Dutchman somehow managed to rifle home into his own net from a ridiculously tight angle.
It’s quite a finish. Fortunately for him it was chalked offside.
If this was 1996 you’d have been watching this again and again on Christmas Day on the Nick Hancock’s Football Nightmares VHS your dad got you….

And Sergio Romero would probably have been joining him…
