Did no-one give Neto the memo that this was to be a good weekend for goalkeepers?
Fiorentina might well have won comfortably today 4-1 at Cesena but very few are talking about the result after their number one made this absolute howler.
At 2-0, Stefan Savic thinks he's doing a nice tidy-up job in laying one back for his 'keeper but sure so too did Olof Melberg all those years ago. Whatever was going on in Neto's head, it wasn't the same thing that was happening in David de Gea's or Gianluigi Buffon's this weekend.
The ball inexplicably evades the clutches of the embarrassed stopper and, three points or not, look what we're still going on about.
Thanks to Thomas Curran for sending this our way.
