Now *this* is a major goalkeeping gaffe!
The poor keeper here just had a mind meltdown, forgot to play the bounce, and over his head it went.
This reminds me of a soccer match I went to around 1975. Kurt Kuykendall was in the net for the Washington Diplomats against, I believe, the Fort Lauderdale Strikers. He had a very stiff wind in his face. Kuykendall punted the ball, but mis-hit it, giving the ball a mean backspin and a stunted but almost vertical trajectory. The wind, even stiffer aloft, caught the ball and blew it right over Kuykendall's head and into his own goal.
