One recurring theme, however, was that of own goals.

Four were scored in total across round one – two more than the current top scorers in the Premier League.

In 2021, the Premier League saw its 1000th own goal scored when Tottenham’s Sergio Reguilon put one past his own goalkeeper.

With so many scored, The Sporting News takes a look at the players, teams and season most affiliated with own goals.

The unfortunate honour for most Premier League own goals scored by a single player goes to Richard Dunne.

The retired Irish centre-back put the ball in his own net 10 times across 432 top-flight appearances.

Dunne is currently well clear in the Premier League own-goal standings with the closest active player, Jonny Evans, still four shy of his record.

Brighton’s Lewis Dunk scored the most Premier League own goals in a single season with four of his five coming in the 2017-18 season alone.
