The most ridiculous own goal of the season so far

Sassuolo piled further misery on Chievo, who remain the Italian top flight's basement boys in no small part due to their appalling luck.

Francesco Di Francesco gave the hosts a first-half lead, with Chievo growing more and more desperate and throwing more men forward as time went on as a result.

However, the only goal they were able to muster was an own goal, though it was a beauty.

Domenico Berardi really ought to have scored as he was denied by veteran stopper Stefano Sorrentino after going through one-on.one, but was came next was simply unexplainable by anyone other than Giaccherini.

As Sorrentino made a fine save to deny the Sassuolo striker, the former Sunderland man attempted to chest the loose ball back his goalkeeper, who remained sprawled out on the floor.

Sorrentino was unable to react in time, able only to watch the ball trickle past him and into the back of the net to make the win safe for Sassuolo.

It was a goal that more or less summed up Chievo's season to date.
