Football: Hangeland makes amends

 

Norway international Brede Hangeland was in the spotlight in more sence than one when his club Fulham met Manchester United on Sunday. He first scored an own goal to give the lead to United.

The own goal came in 84th minute, when a corner ricochet off his shin into his own net to give United a 2-1 lead.

However, five minutes later he made amends, when rising to head home from a corner the Norwegian gave his side a thoroughly warranted equaliser.

- I owed us a goal, Hangeland said.
