Christoph Kramer scores an incredible own goal from 45 yards

The GOAT.

Sascha Steinbach

There are own goals that are spectacular in their incompetence, or hilarious, or even those that require a great bit of skill. But they almost always come from within 15 yards.

It’s nearly impossible to score an own goal from 20 yards.

Or 30 yards.

Or 40 yards.

And yet Borussia Monchengladbach's Christoph Kramer managed to score one from 45 yards. It's remarkable.

This may be the rarest own goal ever. Well, this or butt own goal.
