>1994: In the preliminary round of the 1994 Caribbean Cup, Barbados deliberately scored an own goal in a successful attempt to advance to the final stage by forcing golden goal extra time against Grenada, as an unusual tournament rule awarded a two goal victory to a team that won in extra time. Needing a two goal victory to advance, Barbados found themselves up 2–1 with three minutes left in regulation time. After Grenada realised what had happened, they in turn tried to score against their own net while Barbados defended both goals for the final three minutes of the match.[8] Barbados won the game in extra time and advanced to the next round.

At least Barbados had a reason to do it. I bet the poor guy in the other match wasn't trying to do it. IAC it still seems pretty unusual.

Good thing he didn't play for Colombia. Andres Escobar, a Colombian defender, was killed after "scoring" an own-goal in the 1994 World Cup. Supposedly some drug lords had bet a lot of money on Colombia to win.
