Panathinaikos Ace Daniel Mancini has perhaps committed the biggest blunder of the year and ended the title hoop of his team.
Mancini, 28, and his teammates visited Bottom-the-League Lamia on Sunday in a competition where the Greek giants needed the three points to preserve the pressure on bitter rivals Olympiacos at the top.
The side of Rui Vitoria tolerated a terrible start that had admitted them after just four minutes by ex-reading and Aston Villa Aaron Tshibola.
Panathinaikos equalized for 72 minutes to Filip Djuricic, but Lamia fought back and regained the pipe only six minutes later with Gustavo Furtado, who used to play for the visitors.
The Athens outfit pushed hard for another equalizer, but a disaster struck three minutes before full -time.
Ex-Grimsby Town Ace Sebastian Ring tried to find Furtado with a ball.
Mancini, who played right back from position, thought the ball went out for a free throw.
But Ring signaled to Furtado that the ball was still surprisingly in the game, because he never went over the line, while the Panathinaikos-Aas was ready for the complex that the referee had never awarded.
Furtado got possession and broke in the box with his marker completely not aware of what happened.
The Lamia star tried to beat goalkeeper Bartlomiej Drągowski from a tight corner, but the International Van Poland denied him.

The misery of Mancini, however, would get much worse because for some reason he decided to kick a new ball in the game before Furtado's shot.
Referee Angelos Evangelou stopped the match and gave the hosts a penalty, according to the rules before he booked the winger.
Furtado took a place to split and defeated Dragowski to seal only the second victory of the Lamia season.
The rules state that if another ball or object is thrown on the field by another player, the referee grants a fixed piece to the opponent of the place where it landed.
Because the ball was thrown into the Panathinaikos area, where the action took place, the referee admitted a penalty.
Two years ago Valencia came away with a similar piece of 's *** HOUSEY' against Real Madrid.
While Vinicius was approaching the penalty area of the hosts, a defender kicked a second ball against the person with whom he dripped before the Brazilian could enter the box.
Furtado enjoyed the repayment quite well because he was loaded by Panathinaikos last year after he had gone viral in a clip in a clip that chased him after the bus of the B team, who forgot him and almost left him behind.
PAO is now third in the table with eight points that they separate from above.
