Have Celtic scored the worst own goal of the season? 😅.

Celtic will have to overcome a catastrophic error in the first half of their Champions League match on Wednesday. And quick.

The Scottish club welcomed Club Brugge to town and gave the visitors the lead after an own goal.

Cameron Carter Vickers, a central defender, was harassed by Maxim De Cuyper in his box and attempted to send the ball to goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.

But his teammate was far away from the goal, and the ball trickled in as the Celtic player quickly buried his face in his hands.

Is this the worst (or best?) own goal of the season already?
