Inter Milan was taking on Chelsea today in a friendly at the 2017 International Champions Cup. Inter was in control for pretty much the entire finals match, and with roughly 16 minutes left to play, they held a 2-0 lead over Chelsea. The fat lady was warming up when Inter’s Geoffrey Kondogbia gave Chelsea a lifeline.
The 24-year-old French midfielder tried to pass to his goalkeeper, but instead, he scored the most amazing own goal that you will ever see. Watch the spectacular highlight (lowlight?) in the videos below.

GOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!! What a beauty. It’s a goddamn shame that such a gorgeous shot had to count for the other team.
Thankfully for Kondogbia, Inter Milan kept Chelsea off of the board for the remainder of the game, holding on for a 2-1 victory at Singapore’s National Stadium. It was Inter Milan’s first time ever winning the International Champions Cup, and it was most definitely a victory that they will always remember.
