There are nights like that.
In the 41st minute of play between Olympique de Marseille and Toulouse FC, a long ball from Dimitri Payet goes towards Cengiz Ünder, behind Rasmus Nicolaisen.
This one must then intervene, and does it rather well initially.
A first header to stop the ball, a second to give it back to his goalkeeper, Maxime Dupé.
Problem, this one is slightly advanced, and Nicolaisen's helmet blow is far too powerful.
As a result, the doorman is lobbed and the ball ends up in the back of the net.
And if Toulouse was then led 1-0, the meeting was not too unbalanced until then.
But the people of Toulouse will not be able to recover from this blow of fate.
Trailing 2-0 at the break, they conceded four additional goals, including jewels from Sead Kolasinac and Dimitri Payet, to finally lose 6-1 at the Vélodrome.
A fourth consecutive defeat for the men of Philippe Montanier, stuck in 13th place in Ligue 1.
With this own goal, Rasmus Nicolaisen joins some renowned players in the pantheon of those who have deceived their own goalkeeper in an exceptional way.
We are thinking in particular of Franck Queudrue, who scored with a splendid "strike" from 35 meters against Bastia while playing in the colors of RC Lens, or Goeffrey Kondogbia, author of a superb lob with Inter against Chelsea.
A club Rasmus Nicolaisen would surely prefer not to belong to.
