There was an English lower division game earlier this season, I think
it was Yeovil and Plymouth or something. Plymouth played the ball out
for an injury and Yeovil threw it in and then kicked it deep to give
the ball back. But the Plymouth keeper messed up and let the ball go
in to give Yeovil a goal. On the ensuing kickoff, all of Yeovil's
team stood watch as Plymouth dribbled the ball upfield and scored
unopposed.
