Hamburg goalkeeper Daniel Heuer Fernandes scored a calamitous own goal to gift rivals St Paul a three-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga 2. Fernandes miscued a clearance high into his own net in one of the most embarrassing moments ever seen in football.<\/p>\n

St Pauli took an early lead against rivals Hamburg, with the two teams first and second in the German second-tier respectively. Former Hull forward Jackson Irvine put the league leaders ahead after 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

And they led 2-0 thanks to a cringe-inducing moment for Fernandes. The shot-stopper passed a short goal-kick to one of his central defenders, who laid the ball off to his defensive partner.<\/p>\n

The ball was then passed back to Fernandes but it bobbled as it made its way towards the 31-year-old. With the ball bouncing at an awkward height, the former Borussia Dortmund academy star opted to attempt a long clearance rather than continue with the short passing around the defence.<\/p>\n

But Fernandes completely miscued his kick. The ball powerfully ricocheted off the top of his foot and flew into the roof of the net.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fernandes’ error handed St. Pauli a 2-0 lead, which would have seen them lead Bundesliga 2 by six points. But the goalkeeper was bailed out by his team-mates, who produced a brave performance to ensure they secured a point against their local rivals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Former Cardiff centre-forward Robert Glatzel halved the deficit in the 58th minute before Immanuel Pherai equalised just two minutes later.\u00a0<\/p>\n
