Nicklas Bendtner scores a nice glancing header, too bad it was an own goal

Nicklas Bendtner was among the goals today.

The Nottingham Forest striker rose high to score a nice glancing header in the game against the club's bitter rivals Derby County. It's just a shame it was at the wrong end. Bendtner scored an unfortunate own-goal to give the home side the lead in the midlands' derby, and the Derby fans absolutely loved it.
Bendtner signed for Forest back in September on a free-transfer, after being without a club since Wolfsburg cancelled his contract last April.
He has scored two goals (at the right end) in 10 games so far, and has a long way to go to make sure his own goal against Derby isn't his most famous moment in a Forest shirt.
The former Arsenal striker's own-goal set Derby on their way to a 3-0 win, and he should probably avoid social media for the rest of the day.
