VIDEO: Former Manchester United defender scores comedy own goal for Leeds United

SportsJOE

We always love to see former Manchester United players doing well.

We’re sure everyone is delighting in the form that ex-United star Javier Hernandez is showing over at Bayer Leverkusen.

And there’s nothing better than seeing Angel Di Maria remember how to play football again.

But there’s something extra special about seeing Red Devils players of old pull off absolute clangers.

Today one such footballing mishap befell one-time United defender Scott Wootton.

Now with Leeds United, he showed all the composure in front of goal as a drunken bloke delicately trying to unlock his front door and not wake the Mrs up at 3am.

Watford must have been thanking their luck stars as this howler gifted them the lead in the FA Cup clash…
