City grateful: Maxime Estève makes unwanted history with two own goals | OneFootball

Maxime Estève had a day to forget in the Premier League.

The Burnley defender scored two own goals in the 5-1 defeat to Manchester City. According to Opta data, he is only the sixth player in league history to do this in a single game.

The last to experience a similar situation was Craig Dawson, in December 2024, when he played for Wolves against Everton.

What happened in the match?

Burnley even managed to equalize after falling behind, but City turned the game around with authority. Estève's own goals helped the home team dominate the match.

Haaland (twice) and Matheus Cunha completed the scoring for City – Anthony scored Burnley’s only goal.

With this result, Vincent Kompany’s team makes a leap in the standings and, at least provisionally, takes fourth place with 10 points.

Two own goals in the same game? Extremely rare. And now Maxime Estève has joined this rather unpleasant statistic.
