The bizarre goal of Sheffield United won 2-1 with Manchester City in the 2008 Bramall Lane.
Thousands of Manchester City fans created a great display with blue and white flags, colored paper and balloons when the player came out of the tunnel. Most balloons were empty on the stadium until the start of the game, but some remained around the edge of the pitch.
In 12 minutes of the game, Lee Martin dribbled his left wing and crossed the ball. Many balloons flew in the penalty area, and the ball hit one of them and the wrong city defender Michael Ball.
Jon Stead doubled the lead of home side before Daniel Sturridge got 1 for visitors in 24 minutes. The game ended with United 2-1.
