Romaine Sawyers' 'No-Look' Own Goal For West Brom Vs Leeds Is The Weirdest Of The Season

Romaine Sawyers has scored the most bizarre own goal of the season for West Bromwich Albion vs Leeds United.

Sam Allardyce's side welcomed Leeds to the Hawthorns on the back of a 1-1 draw with champions Liverpool last weekend.

But nine minutes in, they found themselves 1-0 down thanks to Sawyers' no-look pass.

The 29-year-old tried to play it back towards goalkeeper Sam Johnstone while under pressure from Rodrigo, but he overhit the pass and it went straight into the net.

'Big Sam' looked furious on the touchline and there was absolutely nothing he could do about it.

Rodrigo received praise from his teammates for the pressing on show, while Sawyers was devastated.

Fans have reacted to the blunder and they think it's one of the most comical own goals of the season.

In the 31st minute, Ezgjan Alioski smashed home his second goal of the season with a left-footed thunderbolt to make it 2-0.

Jack Harrison and Rodrigo then added two quick goals to give Marcelo Bielsa's side a comfortable 4-0 lead at half-time.
