Lucas Bergvall scored a horror own goal during Tottenham's Europa League last-16 clash away to AZ Alkmaar. Spurs travelled to the Netherlands with hopes of a first-leg lead, but fell behind early doors because of the Bergvall blunder.

It came while Bergvall was attempting to clear a corner, with the 19-year-old swinging a left boot at the ball. Much to the frustration of the Swede, the ball travelled in the opposite direction, rocketing into the top-right corner of Guglielmo Vicario's goal.

Djed Spence came close to clearing the ball on the line, but Bergvall was left with his head in his hands after breaking the deadlock with an own goal. It remained the only goal of the first half, with Spurs trailing at the half-time break.

Reacting to the goal on social media, @TomDEX88 replied: "Bergvall trying to copy that Tigres women's Puskas contender," a reference to Lizbeth Ovalle's recent viral strike for Tigres Femenil.

@1ndy_B joined in the discussion, adding: "That's a lovely finish tbf [two laughing emojis]."

While @SportsWashed49 said: "As far as OGs [own goals] go, that was pretty decent to be fair [ok emoji]."

Ange Postecoglou has previously commented on Bergvall's experience, : "The same with Lucas, giving him an understanding of the levels here. It is not easy when you are playing away in Europe. You can only allow them to learn that by exposing them to it."
