Real Salt Lake player sets MLS back years with blooper play

For some context, that’s Real Salt Lake defender Luke Mulholland attempting to clear a ball off his own goalline in Sunday’s game against Sporting Kansas City. However, he was apparently oblivious to two facts: (1) the ball was already behind the goal, and (2) the goal post.

If you’re having a long day or need some cheering up, feel free to mute the above video, play this link in a separate tab, and repeatedly watch Mulholland bouncing off the post.
