Watch RB Leipzig star Nordi Mukiele score comical own goal to put Man City even further ahead leaving fans in hysterics
NORDI MUKIELE was left sprawled on the turf with his head in his hands after scoring a dreadful own goal against Manchester City.
RB Leipzig had already gotten off to a bad start at the Etihad, with Nathan Ake having given Pep Guardiola‘s side the lead after 16 minutes.
And things got worse in sensational fashion, when Mukiele had a disastrous moment.
Things seemed innocuous enough, as Kevin De Bruyne sent in a cross from the right.
But Mukiele got into a terrible mix-up with goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi, nodding the ball past the wrong-footed Hungarian.
The dreadful error left the Frenchman devastated.
Christopher Nkunku’s 42nd minute effort momentarily got Leipzig back in the game.
But Riyad Mahrez put City back into a commanding position from the penalty spot in first-half stoppage time.
