ANTANANARIVO (Reuters) - Newly-crowned Madagascan champions AS Adema thrashed their opponents 149-0 in a top national league match after the opposition deliberately scored one own goal after another in a protest over a refereeing decision.
Radio Madagascar reported on Friday that Stade Olympique l'Emyrne scored the own goals against Adema as a protest after SOE's coach Ratsimandresy Ratsarazaka lost his temper with the referee.

Spectators told the radio that following the row between Ratsarazaka and the referee at Adema's home ground in the port of Toamasina, SOE repeatedly kicked the ball towards their own goal after each kickoff and scored 149 own goals in the process.

Adema's players reportedly stood around looking bemused, doing nothing to stop the opposition from self-destructing.

Radio Madagascar claimed the result represented a new world record score in a first class match.

SOE were last year's Malagasy champions who surprisingly won through to the second round of the African Champions League this season. Adema clinched the Malagasy title last weekend.

I wonder if you could be the leaugues leading scorer by scoring 50 own goals?
[quote]
Sounds like the ultimate in bad sportsmanship, but also an effective way of making a point...
[quote]
hahaha that's quite funny actually. Kick off..own goal...Kick off...own goal... x 149 That's about 1.7 goals per minute.
[quote]
lol that IS fucked. Graph is right, bad sportsmanship

How petty can you get?!

No matter what happens off the field you shld NEVER bring it onto the field, if they had a serious issue with the ref, they shld have refused to play!

Why didnt they just walk off the field in protest?!

Personally i think that's pathetic behaviour for a top class side, their supporters pay to watch them win or at least give it their best shot at doing so, NOT to watch them throw a tantrum and deliberately throw the game.

hmmm, wonder if they could be had up for match fixing?...

[quote]
149 in 90 mins holy crap thts like 1.65 goals a min, but tht just ruins the game, oh well pretty funny
[quote]
Cool.
I've felt bad all year for scoring 2 own goals in the first game of this years season.(Not by protest either, just incompetency!!)

I feel much better now!

Smile

[quote]
You shouldnt feel better

My team once lost 22-4, we were hearteneed to learn that other teams had lost to the same opponents by more than 25 goals though. In fact one team lost 36-0 to them, someone oviously made a huge fuck up with the grading round results.

Don't feel bad RDG, I went through a patch where I scored own goals in 4 straight games.
[quote]
Thats quite bizarre that a team can be so dominant to score 22 goals and yet let in 4
[quote]
I think it called "giving the other team a chance" Maestro!
[quote]
heh heh that may be true I guess

I come from the other school, never give a sucker an even break Wink
[quote]
jono, we didnt play in the same team did we :S

my team lost 33-0, but we were a 2nd div team under 13's, playing a prem under 14 team (both the teams we were ment to play didnt turn up, so we played each other)
[quote]
Pity they couldn't achieve the 150 mark, maybe thats something to aim for next time Smile
[quote]
flippen crybabies I reckon


What the fuck did thye gain from doing that? Except for looking like idiots the world over that is.
[quote]
