I disagree about the own goal assessment as it was a shot fired from inside the 18 that deflected off the defender (standing near the 6). The defender made no motion at kicking at the ball and really was a bystander who happened to get struck with the ball on its path to the back of the net.
When I think own goal, I think of an innocent ball which by direct action of the defender winds up in the back of the net though if left alone would not have.
