ANTANANARIVO (Reuters) - Newly-crowned Madagascan champions AS Adema thrashed their opponents 149-0 in a top national league match after the opposition deliberately scored one own goal after another in a protest over a refereeing decision.
Radio Madagascar reported on Friday that Stade Olympique l'Emyrne scored the own goals against Adema as a protest after SOE's coach Ratsimandresy Ratsarazaka lost his temper with the referee.

Spectators told the radio that following the row between Ratsarazaka and the referee at Adema's home ground in the port of Toamasina, SOE repeatedly kicked the ball towards their own goal after each kickoff and scored 149 own goals in the process.

Adema's players reportedly stood around looking bemused, doing nothing to stop the opposition from self-destructing.

Radio Madagascar claimed the result represented a new world record score in a first class match.

SOE were last year's Malagasy champions who surprisingly won through to the second round of the African Champions League this season. Adema clinched the Malagasy title last weekend.

Think Arsenal must be trying for this record as well the way they have been playing lately.

what did they expect them to do? they were hardly gonna fight for the ball and score in their own net were they.

Bet that was a cracking game.

From a spectators point of view, certainly something to brag about to the grandkids one day

Thats quality but I do think you could have listed the goalscorers and times of the goals

That would have been cool. challenge to get the ball in your own net Agree a rule that the ball must be passed to at least 5 players before they can shoot for goal & both teams start in the same half
