CNN —It’s a mistake that will live long in the memory, but one which Aston Villa defender Tyrone Mings will want to forget quickly.
Clearly not thinking the goal-kick had been taken, Mings picked the ball up with his hands and retook it himself.
Brugge captain Hans Vanaken scored the resulting penalty to hand Villa its first defeat of this Champions League campaign.
“It kills the game.”A very similar indecent occurred in last year’s Champions League compeition, during the quarterfinal between Arsenal and Bayern Munich.
The Premier League club has slipped to 12th in the Champions League table as a result.
