When you think of Italian goalkeepers your mind wanders to the great Dino Zoff, to Gianluca Pagliuca, and in a more recent context, Gigi Buffon.
Flamboyant, serene men - legends of the game - flying through the air with swallow-like grace, plucking balls out of the air like it's nobody's business.
You also probably think of similar incidents to this one today - a bollock-dropping of the highest order by Sassuolo's goalkeeper Andrea Consigli.
Oh dear. Now, before you get ahead of yourselves with various, wild accusations, there is another angle which suggests the 29-year-old may have actually been aiming for one of his own defenders - namely Francesco Acerbi.
Even allowing for his unfathomably awkward body position as he applied a deft finish into his own net, gifting Fiorentina their third goal in a 3-1 victory with just seven minutes remaining, his facial expression does strike as one of sincere mortification...
It does, doesn't it? Lads? LADS??
Consigli's OG did spark scenes reminiscent of Torino 'keeper Danielle Padelli this time last season...
Incredible own-goal howler from Torino's keeper as he passes the ball into the back of his own net. http://t.co/Vy1nOqjILf
