I would agree with you if this was a game in a park where someone stood in goal who had never done this before.
But any professional goalkeeper knows that there is always the possibility that a ball may hit a bump on the grass. He has to position his leg and foot so that he is sure to hit the ball even if it is deflected a few centimeters. Robinson, however, only thought about hitting the ball as hard as he could. That's not the priority in this kind of situation.

@paulsawers I couldnt agree with you more, as a goalkeeper myself, i make diverts like that to improve my goal kicks and when that happens nothing you can do it about, shame he got dropped seeing as he was a very good goalkeeper at the time and still is!

Poor Gary Neville LOL

Robinson made the mistake but it still goes down as an own goal from Garry Neville....LMAO

I can't actually believe Paul Robinson got pelters for this. Absolutely nothing he can do about shit like that.

I only JUST realised that this went over the 6 yard box.. PRECISELY where he would have (very likely) made a divot for his goal kicks. THEREFORE as a professional Goalie and REGARDLESS of whether he made divot or not he should have looked at the position and considered it a possibility! 100% ERROR
