Koita's error for Mali U17 in the World Cup. Twitter

In the third-place play-off at the U17 World Cup between Brazil and Mali, it was the South American side who took the lead, thanks to a horrendous goal from Mali goalkeeper Koita.

Mali were on top for most of the game with the Brazilian goalkeeper seeing much more action than his Malian counterpart.

However, after 55 minutes, Mali lost the ball in a dangerous area and Alan broke towards the box before releasing a shot.

The effort was tame and Koita looked as if he would claim it easily, but the keeper somehow missed the ball and it trickled through his hands and into the goal.

Check out the shocking error below:
