Own goal
An own goal (or self-goal ), in Austria and Switzerland also own goal , occurs in goal games when a player shoots the ball into the goal of his own team. The opposing team is credited with the number of points for a goal scored.
Soccer
Rules for goal and own goal
In Germany, the attacking player is also listed as the scorer of a goal if a defending player deflects the ball, even if the ball would have missed the goal without the action of the defending player. It is crucial that “an attempt to shoot at goal is clearly recognizable”. It is only considered an own goal if “the defending player has acted in a controlled manner in an undisturbed situation”; regardless of this, a ball that comes directly from an opponent's throw-in or an indirect free kick (from which no goal can be scored by rule) and goes into the goal is always an own goal.

Other ball sports
Own goals (or own baskets) are also possible in ice hockey, handball and basketball and occur every now and then.
basketball
In basketball, in the event of an unintentional own basket at FIBA level, the points are assigned to the captain of the opposing team; in the NBA, on the other hand, to the player of the opposing team who is closest to the basket. According to the FIBA rules, an intentional own basket is not possible; an attempt to do so only results in possession of the ball for the opposing team.
ice Hockey
In contrast to football, in ice hockey an own goal is not attributed to the actual shooter, but to the person who was the last player on the team for which the goal was scored to touch the puck.
hockey
In hockey Own goals are not possible. If the ball is carried over the goal line by a defending player, a long or short corner ( penalty corner ) is decided for the attacking team. In 2012 the rule on how a goal can be scored was temporarily changed so that own goals were also possible. The German national hockey team won 5-0 against South Korea on June 30, 2013, and 6-0 against Malaysia on July 4, 2013, also through own goals by the opposing teams. The own goal was abolished after just one season.
"Own goal" metaphorically
In a figurative sense, an own goal is referred to as an act that is directed against oneself against one's intention. One speaks of “shooting an own goal”.
