Memorable moments in the match between Argentina’s 2-1 defeat of Bosnia and Herzegovina : Argentina, Sead Kolasinac set a new record that he will not necessarily wish to be reminded of any time soon.
With two minutes and nine seconds on the clock, the Bosnian defender proceeded to knock the ball into his own net following a Lionel Messi free-kick, becoming the fastest own goal scorer in World Cup history in the process.
In doing so, he takes the place of Carlos Gamarra, the previous holder of the unenviable record, who steered a David Beckham free-kick past his own goalkeeper in the third minute of England’s clash with Paraguay at Germany 2006.
Kolasinac’s ‘strike’ is the third own goal of Brazil 2014, following on from Marcelo in Brazil’s opening match with Croatia and Honduran ’keeper Noel Valladares versus France.
